Influenced by Change

This week at work there were some moments of discomfort, some discussions, and some time away. I spent my day off doing things that I needed to do - I saw my brother, spent time with my lover, napped on the couch, looked at my finance situation, and now I sit at the kitchen table typing this blog. Change is such a progression; it takes the shape of many stages and moments in time to fully complete the cycle. I am doing very well with my change. That does not go to say that its easy to go through, but I've been doing my very best to pull the beneficial messages from my experiences. I then build upon these personal discoveries and strive towards better understanding myself, those I interact with, and the world we live in.

What did I learn this week?
I appreciate the divide between personal and business and I will defend that position when I feel it is encroached upon. I know that if my stance does not yield some positive results that I will be prepared for the next portion of life's evolution. I'm not always the easiest person to get along with, to understand and comprehend, but that's likely because sometimes I am not sure I even understand myself, until I've had time to reflect and analyze. I'm at a point in my life where I'm ready to demand my worth and that's a difficult task to appeal to when one has spent so much time settling for what was easier. My love is complex, yet simple, and I have no complaints with it. I am the happiest "in love" person I know and I owe it all to my wonderful boyfriend. My work life, however, holds room for improvement.

Now to see what plays out... and how I can influence it.

“You don't have to be a "person of influence" to be influential. In fact, the most influential people in my life are probably not even aware of the things they've taught me.” (Scott Adams, 1957- ).
