You're on your own journey

We can't help but compare our progress to that of others. We want to achieve so much in such a little amount of time. 

I need to remind myself - that things will happen in good time. 
I feel like I need to achieve things with my sideline, I need to start a business, I need to have my finances in check but all of this is followed up with impatience and urgency. 

I want it all - and I want it now. 

Here are some things I need to remember:

• If you're seeing a peer racing ahead of the career ladder that you've only taken a couple of steps up the ladder yourself in the same time frame, then stop comparing how you are as good as them - you will get what you want when the time is right. But don't give up! 
• If you're feeling like things are becoming a little static with your business, and clients aren't coming on board as quickly as you'd like them to, then give yourself a break. Stop fretting. The people you pitched to and didn't close, were not YOUR ideal customers. They clearly don't see the value, and you're better off without them - continue doing your thing, continue pitching and you'll see. 
• Finances are going to work themselves out if you continue to be sensible. Just plan it all and watch the little money tree grow. Budget everything. 
• Support others, but don't forget about yourself. Don't forget about loving yourself, looking after yourself and ensuring you have some me-time to recharge. 

That is it for now. Little steps.
