Since dedicating all of my time to Organise Happy CIC and starting university studying Psychology, I have noticed a few things in just a few weeks;
First of all, my motivation levels are off the chart! I am finding that there are not enough hours in the day but in a really positive way. Historically, I would have said the same thing...but that was because of all of the tasks that I HAD to do whereas now I am doing the tasks that I WANT to do. I hope it lasts!
Secondly, I am sleeping and eating better!
I mean, the second point there is a bit of a fabrication as I am in recovery for an eating disorder so I cant let my career change take the credit for all of that. I guess both of these factors have also had a huge influence on my new sleeping pattern. I used to wake up every single night. Sometimes for a few hours in one chunk, sometimes several short periods of being awake and sometimes, teh absolute worst....both of these in the same night.Yikes on a bike! I am now sleeping through the night most nights - boy do I feel better for it!
Last but not least, I have headspace! This one did surprise me a bit. I assumed that having more to do and lots of new challenges to face would be rather overwhelming. Apparently, so far I am nailing it! I am remembering lots of things that I would previously forget and I have the time to go the extra mile in lots of ways, especially with my immediate family. Don't get me wrong, as I mentioned above there are still not enough hours in the day but I just don't get stressed about anything...at ...all! It's a very nice place to be, and I certainly hope this one lasts.
There really is something to be said for living your dream. I do not have all of the answers, I am far from rich...but I am happy!
What is stopping you from living your dream?
