Absence and Re-Motivation

Hey everyone..

I have been absent for quite some time now.

By this, I mean I haven't been active in the WA community, or posting to my site in a little over a month.

Many of you might be asking the question, "Why... why would you give up on a community that is so supportive and why would you give up on your dream?"

Here's the thing, life simply got in the way the last month.

The weather is turning cold and the leaves are turning too. Everywhere you look there are shades of orange, red, brown, and even pink or purple!

If you are a teacher, you'll know what this means.

You'll associate this feeling with the joys of school, laughing students, the ever-so-loved school bell, and the once again busy hallways. I am a teacher and school has started once again. If you are a teacher or know anybody that is a teacher, you will know that this career is a very exhausting and daunting task. This is my career because I used to think of my teachers as superheroes. I have always wanted to be a superhero to students as well.

However, because this is my career, I have taken a leave of absence from reaching my dreams of building passive income. I have simply ran out of time.

The last few weeks my guilt of not working hard towards my website and towards this community has eaten me away. I think about it often.

I also have been dreading most mornings when I wake up for school. It seems I have lost motivation in a lot of ways so far this fall.

However, I believe I may have found the needle in the haystack that is life. I believe that I may have discovered a motivating factor. I want to replace my full time job.

I want to build a successful online business and replace my 7-?? job.

This newly found motivation has allowed me to finish an article I had started what seems like many moons ago. I am hoping, that with completeing the article, that I will be able to continue writing mulitple times a week once more.

I thank you to this community for always being here, being supportive, and most importantly, never giving up on someone.

Thank you.

Russell
