After the rather relentless September, October felt like I just drifting aimlessly!
Over many years I’ve had to work hard to keep my head above water and that hard work is finally paying off with me feeling more in control of my life and finances.
However, this feeling is quite alien to me so October at times felt really strange. I was up to date with all my client work as had some annual leave to take so had more time to do this, and work at the uni settled down into the normal rhyme of teaching. Therefore I had headspace to think about other things which I’ve not felt like I’ve had for a very long time.
It’s hard to adjust to a new way of living and thinking when you have been hustling, This led me to feeling a bit lost, I’ve talked about this before but at times in October, I was really questioning my life & where it’s going.
I often think I should stop thinking so much and just let life flow… but I like to push myself to be better and move forward maybe sometimes this has a detrimental effect on me mentally but as I grow older I understand how far I can push myself without causing it to become negative.
My thoughts turned to the future and the little side hustle I am looking to get off the ground, this has been getting off the ground for the last 18 months, well nearly two years if I think back to when a very good friend of mine and I were having a conversation and she planted the seed of an idea in my mind, however, over the last few months I have been doing stuff (well asking other people to do stuff) in the background to get it moving forward, I can’t wait to share it with you and more on this in November’s blog.
October was also about planning for November as I had more annual leave to use so started to make sure these days were utilised well.
