For the past few months I have been finding it so hard to get up in the mornings! To feel excited about anything has really been a chore for me! With everything I have achieved, you would think I would be on cloud 9 but alas, this is not the case. I was so happy to have been approved by The Princes Trust and just before Christmas, I was really excited about being well on my way to becoming a business owner!
And then a huge spanner in the works came along! I was having trouble getting approved for a business account with Natwest bank! Why? I hear you ask?! I still do not know! But this problem meant that I had to push the launch of Mini Men UK back because without a business bank account I could not sign for my funding from The Princes Trust which meant I could not buy my stock or marketing materials!
I can't tell you how upset I have been because of this and even had thoughts of giving up! I mean why put myself through all this stress right?! This ONE thing pretty much tipped me over the edge and i lost it! highly stressed and strung, I was having sleepless nights and I was extremely irritable! I couldn't get out of bed until sometimes 11am! Which If you have young children or run your business, you know this is way too late to be getting out of bed!
This has been going on for 2 months now! And I have finally realised that this is all a test! It is a way for me to be tested to see how badly I want this business to work! Will I give up at the first sign of trouble or persevere and keep pushing until my dreams are achieved?!
I have decided to keep working hard and pushing to make my dreams a reality! You may knock me down but I will keep getting up! It may take me a while to get up but I will make sure I get up!
If you have ever felt this way or are feeling it now, don't suffer in silence! Talk to your friends and family. Go and see your local GP to get some professional help and keep believing that everything will work out fine! All is well!
Someone once said to me, 'If you want to be successful then that is what you will be! Only you can determine what you will be. No one can stop you but you!' And with that, I say if you have ever wanted something, go for it! Don't let anyone or anything stop you from achieving your dreams!
The best way to determine what you want is to write it down.
Firstly make a list of the things you want but write it as If you have it already.
Example: I am a successful fashion mogul
I live in a 6 bedroom house in Miami, Florida
I own a black Bentley Coupe Convertible with the number plate Mini Men
The more detailed you are the better! Get really clear about what you want and put this list of things in your visualisation book or board!
You need to look at your board or book every day and visualise yourself having the things you want! No matter how big or small your dreams are, you have to believe that you can have them and that you deserve to have them!
Remember, our thoughts become things and whatever you think about, you will 'be' about!
We all have a purpose in life! I would love to know what your dreams are! No matter how small or big! Send me your list of aspirations and believe you can achieve them!
