First night at the Hampton Inn, and my mind was already tickin’
But in a good way! :)
Everything there was the same and beautiful. Same suite, same awesome hotel smell, swimming pool, coffee stand, vending machine with neverending ice. All the ice in the world.
I somehow ended up in the hotel room for about 5 minutes all by myself. And let me tell you, it was…. Heaven. Yeah, Heaven. I can’t think of a better word for it. The silence, the solitude, no TV on, just peace and quiet.
And a sense of how it would feel if I lived all on my own.
See, we’re getting parts of our house “upgraded” so my mom can sell it for the outrageous price she thinks she’s gonna get. That’s why we have the hotel. But here’s what I realized in that 5-minute alone time. I don’t wanna move with them. I don’t wanna live in some house out in the wilderness and just start an entire new chapter but under the same circumstances.
I need to be on my own. Trying to make peace with my mom’s super loud TV should not be a New Year’s resolution. Her TV volume is at 27. Mine’s at 6. Yeah, we got a problem here.
I make enough cash online to get the basic necessities, car payment, etc. But nowhere near the amount I would need to move out and live on my own. I have 2 online jobs that are pretty good.
But there are other ways to make money online that are even BETTER.
You just need the guts to do it. If you really want something badly enough, you will have to do whatever is necessary to get it.
Why not? I can’t be chicken-sh*t about this either, I have to just do it. No thinking, no judging, no analyzing, just do it.
Because that 5 minutes of peace and serenity, could turn into a lifetime if I really wanted it to.
And I do!
Ok I’m off to the hotel for a few hours, niece & nephew will be there after school with my dad. Just like the old days.
Do you have a goal you are currently working on?
Would you do anything to achieve it?
I’m going for it.

Take advantage of the free wi-fi. It'll be a life saver. I wish you luck on that goal of yours. And, while my goals aren't that extreme, I make small goals I know I can accomplish. Such as making payout.

That's good. And yeah we enjoy the free wifi there and connect a computer to the TV and watch movies & stuff. I know what you mean about smaller goals, sometimes you even need to break up a big goal into categories so you don't get overwhelmed or lose focus. If you don't mind, I just need to add a pic to this response to keep me on track. I kinda use myLot as a journal and vision board.
This is to remind me of that feeling of freedom. I swiped these from the coffee stand, I think they're cup warmers? or something.
Thnx Kayla

We have to do for US not for other people
rather it's family or friends they don't pay
the bills so it's up to the person that needs
to change the life style their in to do better.
I would love to work online to make $ on
but right now I can't seem to find the right
job, what jobs do you do?

Me too. There's a very careful line you have to draw, so you don't take it too far, but it can't hold you back either. Takes a lot of planning. Thanks Dena :)
