Where Do I Begin?
I will begin by thanking everyone for their encouraging words to keep on keeping on. It helps me to see sunshine through dark and dreary clouds on a storm filled seemingly to be a never ending rainy day. I appreciate the heart felt words from each of you.
I have been in a place between burned out for what I do as a profession and not sure about what I have started. Almost a rock and a hard place. Except the rock has been chiseled down to almost a pebble because I can see around and pick it up and move it out of the way if I choose through retirement and the hard place is this web business, only it is as hard as I make it. Although I am not tech savvy, I do have an enormous amount of help through WA....which I have taken advantage of but not fully.
So I look around to see what or who to blame. I wanted to blame anything and anybody but I alone am in charge of my destiny except for unsuspecting obstacles and life experiences in which sometimes I have not a remote to change the channel. But I simply have to go through the process until that situation is over or off the horizon so to speak and then can I proceed in another direction or return to the point at which I left off and sometimes only to sit and stare before I realize that I have been in the same spot for far too long biding time only to look as though I have been moving along productively; not even fooling myself let alone others.
I have changed the channel to guide and pressing the up button, only after I changed the old batteries for fresh new ones that are able to be recharged quickly. I have the charred pebble in my hand (because the fire has gone out) getting ready to throw it out yonder and finish taking the courses and follow my passion so that I can sit on a cushioned hard place only to feel and experience the ragged edges every now and then. Then I will reposition the cushion to be in a good situation in a hard place.
Blaming no one; but knowing this one will take care of herself by the grace of God.
Thank you for reading my post and as always feedback and a like is greatly appreciated.
God Bless.

Greetings Marquette,
Whenever someone expresses a concern or a question, I usually take a quick peek at their profile. I noticed that you started in November, but are still going through the certification, as you already mentioned. My recommendation would be for you to pick a date of when you want to complete the certification then make every effort to complete it by that date.
I started in September but found that I was still going through the certification in January. I made a decision to finish by the end of February. As it turned out, I finished 2 weeks early!
I remember attending a one-day seminar that had to do with reaching your full potential. There's something that the trainer said that was really profound: We're usually good with keeping our commitments to other people, but often fail to keep the commitments we make to ourselves.
Hi Veronica,
I think most of us are last in line with ourselves. I will have to keep the commitment in front of me and work consistently. Thank you and you just keep doing what you are doing. I am very proud of you.
I like your post! Everything in its own time! Just do the courses when you can and try not to get overwhelmed :)
Thank you Terry. I believe everything happens in its own time. I also believe in procrastination which delays things in their time. I will try and work more consistently.
Hello, Marquette. I am glad to hear from you again.
Marquette, rejoice in the Lord always. Phil. 4:4-7.
God Bless.
Hello Nelson,
It is good to be heard from. I love that scripture passage. I quote it often and also the thirteenth verse. Thank you so much. I am glad to see you are still encouraging through the word.
Hi
I have been in your position. It sounds trivial but what I learned to do is to let go and trust that if you express your intentions to the universe then the universe will look after you. The more you work on your blog the more you will learn. We all have faith in you
Luthor
Yes Luthor, Let Go and Let God. He is always there. I do trust. Thank you for your encouragement. I will continue to work on my blog.
