Hurry Up and Wait!

I dislike intensely the waiting process. It’s as if the Universe is sitting back having a good old laugh at my expense. Well that was a weird picture in my mind. You see, I know that I am supposed to be moving forward to ……something….. Just what that something is I don’t know. And being true to my Cancerian nature, I need to know. I need to control my environment or stay in my shell until the storm has passed.

These past few years have all been about letting go. Letting go of stuff, people, non-beneficial relationships. Letting go of my consulting business and so, so, so, much more.

I have such wonderful supportive people around me who are constantly asking how the job search is going. Well…it’s going….I’ve lost count of how many jobs I’ve applied for. So what is it that I’m waiting for? I’ve asked myself the simple question (well not so simple really), is there anything that I’m doing to prevent this moving forward. I don’t think so. I’ve even had a professional re-write my resume and do a template cover letter. I spend hour every week pouring through website after website.

I did have a piece of wonderful news last week. I person on LinkedIn contacted me and offered to pay the outstanding fees I needed to pay to be able to move forward with licensing to be a wedding officiant. As you may know I took a course last year at this time to become certified as a Life-Cycle Celebrant. But due to income I struggled up until the end of last month finally paying the course off. And then this wonderful gift. So I am now creating another website for my Celebrant work.

But what about regular – paying the bills – work? Well I come back to hurry up and wait. I’m not sure what I’m waiting for. But I know that it will happen at the perfect moment; no later, no sooner.
