Sorry for Absence

Things were a little overwhelming for me lately, and I've been dealing with only being at the computer in short bursts. Not long enough to keep up on my blogs. I haven't forgotten my obligation and duty to them though.

My blogs are going through an attitude change. They are going to be geared at helping those climb up behind me - and to give some a little push if they need the courage to climb further up than me. I've come to realize while I have problems, fears, and lapses of courage, so does everyone else. I'm facing mine and I can help others face their own - to achieve their dreams.

I have life stresses - they are pretty normal. I have confidence issues like everyone else gets. I'm worried about how the economy is going to affect us, just like everyone else.

The more unique issue is dealing with concentration issues. Lately, my ear ringing has been really bad. I don't have Manier's disease (forgive the spelling - not sure how to spell it), but I have low level symptoms like it. Ear ringing like crickets, headaches, nausea ... makes it tough to concentrate. I worked on a sales letter yesterday. Thank God for being self-employed. It was work for ten minutes, lay down for ten minutes, work for ten, lay down for ten. Couldn't do that at a physical job site.

I've been doing massage techniques, hot compresses, ear treatment, etc. Thought about going back to the doctor again, so I researched it. There's not a lot of advancement in this area. The doctor will just tell me the same thing as always. I have the type that is life long, that you have to learn how to manage. Partly because of structural problems with my neck and my sinuses causing the muscles to tighten.

Then I have a few other conditions that are life management treatments. Weird, I have a knack for those.

Anyhow, the point is this. I'm facing this situation and carving out a career for myself. It's not getting me down, although I do have my moments. I am human, after all. But I've learned ways to not let it get to me. I can pass that on to others who are facing issues of their own in life, and help them achieve their goals. That is what I'm going to do from now on.
