It’s been a tough year professionally.
Taking that dive into owning and operating my own business a couple years ago was a big venture for me. Stepping out of my comfort zone. It’s had its highs, and definitely its lows.
Business has been slow recently, filled with misses, and moving in multiple directions to make sure bills are paid. I get so stressed sometimes wondering when’s the next project and check coming…
It’s been like this for a bit..
Just finished up a project in St. James city, stopped to have a much needed “cerveza” after work at the Yucatan Waterfront..
I take a look out on the water.. and a calmness came over me. After months of being a scatter brain, stressing over things outside of my control… I just felt calm, and happy, and started to think about all the good this year has been also. From being afforded the opportunity to coach my son’s baseball team, and being able to coach him on his 2nd all star team and all the time we’ve got to spend together. And my beautiful best friend/wife Amy M. Rodriguez and I getting a gift from god that we’ve waited for, for what seems like forever. And honestly didn’t think would happen. But 14 years after welcoming our beautiful/ smart/ charismatic son Benjamin, we get the opportunity to bring in another son into the world…
I’ve been so mentally drained with work, bills and all the negatives that we face in life, that I’ve robbed myself of enjoying life and the happiness of all the blessings that I have been afforded this year.
(Sorry for the rant)
But just want to let everyone know, don’t get so caught up in the day to day.. that you miss the bigger picture. Enjoy your life, Enjoy your family, and sometimes take a much needed “beer break” to refocus yourself!
May god continue to bless my family, myself, and all of you!
