Wrapping up things

The past two weeks I have hardly been here, during my 4.5 month that I am now working in WA I notice more and more that some parts of my regular company are against me, often because they are often recurring assignments from people who maintain their website poorly or actually have absolutely no idea what they are doing and then saddle me with the mess and then also get annoyed because it is not resolved quickly enough to their liking.

I'm not one to give up or let go when I'm doing something but over the past few months I've noticed that I've been working more for others and the fun has gone away anyway so I made a drastic decision and all my clients who had their website under contract with me and for which I did the necessary jobs in good consultation, transferred to another entrepreneur who wanted to expand his customer base and add my customer base.

This sounds quite radical when you read it like this and in some ways it is, but my company does several parts and the part that I get the most pleasure from I kept it, can you say that my agenda is suddenly a lot more empty and that it is literally felt like a kind of liberation.

At least now I can spend all my time doing things that I enjoy and that give me satisfaction rather than disrupting my days too late or having plans thwarted because I have to jump in ad hoc because a customer calls in panic that the website is suddenly acting weird and she has no idea why but she has been messing around and thought she could fix it herself.

those phone calls are a thing of the past and it feels good to be able to experience that too, it's time to focus on things that are important to me personally.

The last 12 years I have only been busy with others and I did little for myself now the time has come because to turn around and put myself and what I think is important.

my graphic work remains my biggest source of income but now I can determine what I do or do not accept or do that is a liberating feeling I can tell you.

finally time to use my own creativity again. Wealthy Affiliate is an eye-catcher in that respect to show that there is more than just working for customers.

my priorities became more clear and more importantly what i didn't really realize what i liked less and which cost me way more time than i wanted which shortened my time working here .

With 2 types of people in our world-“givers” and “takers” it is now time you aren’t giving everything plus your soul away. Good for you. We could all learn a lesson here! Enjoy your time!

This is something I indeed had to learn the nature of the beast is always to take care of others first and then look at myself I have to change course and if I don't do it now I don't think it will ever happen

As wonderful as it is to always help others Hanneke, it is important to take a step back and think of ourselves from time to time.

Yes it is that is exactly what I’m doing at this point

Great to hear that my friend.

Hanneke it is called self love, now is the time to concentrate on what makes you happy.

I know that is something i have to learn im more a giver

You definitely have the right perspective, Hanneke!
