Only here for a moment
Like a beautiful sunrise, we are only here for a moment. Many situations happen in life and we must remember how important it is to value every moment. This year for me I decided that I will focus on looking after my family first and then getting my business up and running. In old age, I don't want to have any regrets. I would rather try and fail than have fear of getting anything done. In my short life, there are many things I have experienced and done. I have also gone out of my way to live in another part of the world. At the age of 18 years old, I left home and started my life without having any guidance around me. I enjoyed that time of my life because I could make decisions on my own.
As I got older, I realized that if I make any stupid decisions in my life I would have to live with the consequences. I tried to make wise decisions but when they say your network is your net worth, it is not a lie. I spent time with individuals that were not serious about life and I found myself getting involved in areas that I did not anticipate. Eventually, I realized that It was not my personality and decided to get back to myself again. Too late, I had already carried forward some luggage that is still with me today. However, I wanted to change my trajectory and so in 2019, I embarked on this journey with WA. It was at that time that I started getting more aware of what I wanted to achieve. I also decided to draw closer to my family whom I had not had a chance to spend time for almost 20 years. If I had my time again, I know some things I could do better, but in life, you can't linger too much in the past, you must learn from it and move forward with what you have. I enjoy the time I have now to focus on the things that I enjoy and for those difficult moments, I just pace myself moment by moment.

Michelle, I love your reflective blog.
It shows how caring you are, but still very ambitious in making life happen for you.
I agree with you about regrets. That is also my motto.
Whatever. I am doing, I need to have peace of mind so that I can continue throughout any activity. Life is too short and precious for me to have and live with anything that I regret,
Definitely, I don't like living with regrets either because if you can't change it why worry about it? You just have to move forward with the lessons.
Family is everything! Yet there are times that we have to attend to what is before us. Then when we get the opportunity, go back to what is important!
Don’t let the past haunt you, Focus on the present to make a better future!
Cheers,

Oh yes, that's right the little steps we take now help us to move forward in a positive way. We definitely have to learn from our mistakes, it's just part of life.
