I completed training this week to become a Vinyasa yoga instructor. And while I am happy and excited to see where this path leads, I had a bittersweet thought that kept returning - "X" would have been so proud of me. He always wanted me to find something that I was passionate about again. "X" always wanted the best out of me and he consistently challenged my thought processes; that was the attorney in him and the fake attorney in me. I have found a sense of self and passion in the fitness realm and I'm not sure where I'll end up yet. This career trajectory was no where on the radar a year ago, as I've taken the time to find myself, to trust myself, I've learned a few things.
Steps forward, even with the occasional step(s) backward, are always a positive.
New careers are scary. And exciting.
We touch lives daily - but it takes more focus to impact lives.
I want to impact, not just touch.
My personality is bigger than yours. It just is. =)
Those are not my rules to live by or anything of the like. Those are just points that for me, in this moment, right here and now,,,,I connect with. It's taken almost a year for me to really find myself and my happy. I'm still looking but I can say with confidence I'm getting there. One step at a time.
