I am currently in the middle of undertaking a very difficult change in my life.  I was recently faced with a decision that could pretty much be described as a dilemma:

A) Take no action, feel no immediate significant pain or stress, but live in a life of misery and never achieve the things I always dreamed of.

B) Take action and feel immediate pain and stress for an unspecified period of time, but live with less stress in the long run.

Guess what I chose?  B.  Time to care about myself and the big picture.

My future has many good things in store for me.  Everytime I make a decision I remind myself that I deserve the best in life.  Doing so will ensure that I do not succumb to self-pity and negative influences.  I believe that one day I will own my own home, and have a stable job with a decent income.  I also want to be physically fit and continue working on my yoga practice which makes me feel better physically and mentally. 

It doesn't stop there, I plan on owning my own business one day.  I would like to provide a consultation service for small businesses that need assistance in marketing and communications.

Family and friends play a big role in my future.  Without these people I would not be where I am today and I will need their love and support to continue on a road to success.  These relationships are also very rewarding because they are a constant reminder that other people care a lot about me so I should care just as much as the rest of them.
