EMPOWERMENT: Self growth, it is the process of becoming stronger, more confident, and more in control of one's life.
I received a letter during the week with words of encouragement. The letter was about my health and also about my work. I didn't expect my work to come into it, it brought a tear to my eye as I remember the wonderful clients, reps, colleagues, visitors and good times.
I could not see it at the time, I know now that my work then had to end in order for new ventures to begin. While receiving chemotherapy treatment I started to notice that I had to learn more about myself including a new subject called cancer. The one thing I had to overcome during this period was phoning people, especially to ring and ask for advice from my health care professionals and personal assistants.
The direction of my work the lady mentioned in the letter was of Wellness and I use it everyday along with my chemotherapy treatment to get better. I have come to learn about wellness in a different light. It's about all the segments in the circle of life. Changing the bad habits contained in the segments of the circle of life to bring about new good habits. Her words of encouragement I will take with me on my next venture, which starts with education in September. Education and applied life experience is empowerment.
Lastly, pictured are my mum's Lilys she had no hope for them to grow this year and just after her passing which is a month ago today, they bloomed. She must have done something right in order for them to bloom.. Sunshine, rain and the LOVE of tending to them encouraging the Lilys to grow. When I told her about the course I was going to do, her words of encouragement was " ya might as well " that was good enough for me. If you can take words of encouragement as an empowerment tool, doors will swing open. Remember to encourage others too. It works both ways. ๐ป๐๐๐งก๐ฅฆ๐๐
