Getting my mojo back

Written on August 12th, 2011 by sassymomno shouts

I really badly need to get my mojo back!

Urban dictionary defines Mojo as a charm or a spell. It can also self-assuredness or self-confidence.

I guess I need both. I need to have the confidence as well as get back my charm in what I love the most… writing! I know I am not a “pro” when it comes to writing stuff, I even lack the creativity. I believe I am more of a technical writer. However, I just love to write. It’s one thing I am passionate about. But recently, I have lost the passion. I need to fire it up once again.

I find myself writing for the heck of it when I am required to write reviews about industrial bearings, acne creams and the like but I find my articles uninteresting.

At first, I made excuses. I said I need to concentrate on running our small business but its been a couple of years and its operation can now run systematically with minimal supervision. That is of course because I have trusted people to run it. Now, I find myself with so much  more time in my hand and I feel that I need to go back to doing what  I am passionate about. I have long since learned what I enjoy doing the most, that is cooking, writing, and photography.

As to my cooking, last week I started going back to my kitchen and cooking meals for the family and baking for my kids. I guess that’s a good start. In writing, motivation is what I really need plus the fact that I need to get all the distractions out of my way. As to the photography, I think  believe I need to revive my photo blog. I remember how  I get so excited posting photos in there. It’s been months since I last updated it and I promise to update it within the week.

It’s like I have written a list of my New Year’s resolution. teeheehee. Once in a while, it’s really good to examine one’s self to know if you’re doing good. It’s a good exercise.

 

 

 

What motivates me?

Written on June 1st, 2010 by sassymomno shouts

Every day I wake up and wish that I could stay longer in bed.  Who wouldn’t want to? The idea of just lazily lying around and relax instead of getting up and doing the things that you have to do. But that’s not what we are designed for besides I could not live like that my whole life. I have always believed that everyone has a purpose in life and one has to work for it.

What motivates me to get up?

Jahs RaysThe driving force behind my will to pull myself up and get things done would be my family, most especially my kids. To achieve the goal of giving them a better future is reason enough to push me to work and achieve this goal. Simply put, to go after the life you want cannot be achieved by just lazily lying around your house. Even though, I am a stay at home mom, I find opportunities to earn. Right now, aside from my online earning opportunities, I am taking care of our small business that will hopefully expand soon.

Opportunities do not come easy, so sometimes you need to create them. Staying inside the house will definitely not give you opportunity, so I try to expand my network and together with my hubby we try to make the best out of the resources laid upon us.  My husband and I are firm believers that nothing happens by accident, everything has its reason. So if you meet someone,  maybe the Lord is trying to tell you something. Open your heart and mind, so you can hear the message.

I wouldn’t want to sound preachy but it’s my personal relationship with the Lord motivates me to become a better person and achieve the goals that I have set in life.

Have faith, believe in yourself and you can do everything that you mind has set out to do. You may stumble upon a lot of obstacles along the way but if you are focused, you will succeed. Wouldn’t victory be sweeter if you know that you have worked hard for it?

Just like losing weight…. No pain, no gain!
