Perseverance + Persistence equals success!

When you have a big goal in mind and you are moving towards it there will for sure be lots of road blocks, set backs and challenges.

 

This especially happens when you are specifically purposed to do what you are working towards.

 

These can make you doubt why you are doing this and make you wonder if you should keep going.

You can look at these things as telling you to stop and turn around or you embrace them as

opportunities to GROW and BECOME BETTER!  Growing and becoming better is the option I choose!

 

I will ever be growing and learning and encountering new things I have never seen or done.  My old self

often wants to retreat back to where I am comfortable but that does not help me in any way!

 

Even if something is uncomfortable it is wise to ask yourself how you can learn from the experience.

 

Moving forward is the only real option otherwise you are moving backwards.

 

These last few weeks have brought many difficult experiences into my practice.  I could have become

prideful and puffed myself up refusing to realize the learning curve I am on.  I see these trials as an

attempt to weed out the weak and weak I am NOT!

 

I am actually very thankful when these things happen because in the end I am a much better person,

a much better midwife, a much better friend, wife, mother sister daughter….. BETTER in every aspect of my life!

 

I LOVE to learn and grow, even though it does not feel good at the moment!

I am so thankful for mentors who are willing to take the time to guide me and

support me and encourage me!  They see value in what I contribute and

that makes me want to push on!

 

On a different note I have been 5.5 hours away from my family for the past 2.5 months and I am now home (for about a month)

and so happy for it!  I am so very blessed beyond what I could have ever imagined!  I literally have the best husband and children to

hold everything together here at home while I am away chasing a crazy dream.  It also instills in the children to actually chase

your dreams and follow your passion no matter how hard it may be!
