KEEP going! It is only a small BREAK in your journey!
Have you ever found yourself thinking about things that go on & on in your mind?
You know the signs and symptoms that you are going to crash, but you feel helpless to stop it?
Yup, I, too, know the feeling!
My mind has been in limbo for a week now
Although I can still put together articles for writing
It has not been the same
I have to be motivated to write. It is the only way for me!
That's the same reason I've not been blogging here as well :)
After my last post, there have been a lot of changes all around me professionally.
And when that happens, it does take a while for me to process what's going on.
All of this need to be done for me to continue moving forward
It is like a stage of the grieving process
It takes a bit of time before I reach the acceptance { or taking action for me} stage.
If you know me quite well, then you will immediately know when something is off :)
Thanks to all of you that recognised that something was wrong and reached out to me
It really means a lot.
I finally crashed yesterday!
So I took the day and watched the entire series of Celebrity Masterchef UK.
It was the only thing that my mind could handle.
Even though I was watching it or it was watching me :)
I allowed my mind to reflect and focus on the steps that I needed to go forward
That worked a treat.
Today I have already taken positive actions regarding my professional journey.
I now feel that I am ready to celebrate my recent achievements in my online business, which I will share later in a post :)
At the time, it seemed too big a mountain for me to cross
I had to take it in stages, chunk by chunk
Until I could see my business vision
If you are ever in that position, as we can be from time to time
- Use your journal or a piece of paper to jot or write down how you are feeling
- Keep yourself active while still trying to work out your feelings
- Do everything to get out of that 'black hole' or negative mood
It is so essential to bounce back much sooner rather than later
Until next time,
Simone

Indeed, we do stumble and lose our way from time to time. However, we have to find a way to get back on track and continue our journey.
It is great that you can figure things out and get back on track. Here's to getting on track again and continuing your journey.
Have a fantastic Sunday and a productive week ahead! Wishing you the very best!
I'm on track again ;)
Thank goodness
Thank you for your kind words of comfort
Have a great week ahead
Hey Simone,
I'm so sorry to hear that you had a black cloud over your head for a while.
However, it sounds like you're out of that mental rut now and I’m really glad if that’s the case!
Also, I have to admit I like Master Chef too and Hell's Kitchen (I don't know if y'all have Hell's Kitchen in the UK or a version of it).
Anyway, I pray that you have everything sorted out and if not that you will shortly!
Your friend :)
Zach
Yes, we do have Hell's kitchen with Gordon Ramsay
But that series must be an old one for you
I don't believe he does that anymore
Watching both are a mental treat
Thank you for your kind words of support Zach
I had to take time to mull over a lot
But thank God I am not in that place anymore
.
Your support means a lot
Thank you
You're very welcome, Simone!
I'm just glad that you're free from that now!!!
On another note, we just had a new season of Hell's Kitchen that ended in April of this year.
If y'all get the same series (the U.S. version of Hell's Kitchen) maybe it will come there soon and you'll be able to see it.
Your Gordon Ramsay cooking show watching partner🥩🍗🍤
Zach
I didn't know that was still going on
You bet!
My Hell's kitchen partner lol
I will search it up to see where the UK is at in the series :)
I'm feeling better
Thank you again for your ongoing support
Again You're welcome and I am really glad you're feeling better!!!
Also, I hope you get to see the new season.
I know the feeling Simone and taking time for yourself to feel what you feel and to handle it is necessary to come to the right place. I think everybody has that moment.
I certainly did have them and I do the same reflect myself write down what I feel and take the time to handle the feeling and yes it takes time one time more than the other but that is fine
It is good to have you back but ..... keep on watching yourself
Hanneke
Yes, you do know the feeling, Hanneke
Taking time for yourself is indeed important
I'm back to where I want to be on my journey
Thank you for your kind words of support
They mean a lot
You are so welcome I'm glad that you are back on track but still keep taking care of yourself that is so important
and people her miss you when you are not around your a appreciated member
Thank you so much Hanneke
The feeling is very mutual.
I genuinely love this community and I will continue to take better care of myself :)
Have a nice weekend
I have certainly missed your motivational posts recently Simone, but I fully understand why they have not been here for us to enjoy.
We all need to look after number one from time to time, no matter what else happens to be happening in our lives at any given time.
It pleases me greatly to hear that you are doing well now my dear friend and catch up soon ok!:-)
I've certainly missed writing here as well, Nick
Nice that you understand
Looking forward to catching up :)

Hey Simone, glad to hear your getting back some wind in your sails.
I'm of course unfortunately not on here as much as I'd like to be, but had definitely noticed no posts coming in from yourself lately, so glad to hear you're all good :-)
I know exactly what you mean too, the 'career' side of my life has been an insanely frustrating rollercoaster the last few months too.
All the best my friend, always good to see you back :-)
Matty, hey
Nice to connect with you again
It's been a long time :)
It is so lovely that although you're not on the platform as much
You still look out for my post
That's awesome
Thank you
I'm feeling so much better and I'm getting stuck in again
Hope all is well with you
Glad to hear it buddy :-)
But yes, your inspiring, and often thought provoking posts are always refreshing and inspiring to read.
Definitely glad you've managed to get back into your groove. I'm hoping I'm entering a stage that will finally allow me to put in the amount of work i NEED to with all things website.
Nice to hear from you again as always-here's to US carving out the time for ourselves that we need to keep this all going in the right direction.
Absolutely, Matty
To our success :)
