The last few months have been a journey, an experience to say the least. I dont believe there is such a thing as a 'bad experience' as long as you can learn from it and move forwards.
Since I can remember I have wanted to be sucessfull in what ever it was I was doing, my problem up untill I was in my early 20's was that I didn't have a clue what I could do.
I found my career in substance misuse, after 18 months of supporting prescribing clinics and being a dogs body I up't and left for Peterlee. What a learning experience that was. I pushed my self and pushed myself, but it wasn't for me, I wasn't being successful. after two years I got my current job working with under 18s with drug/ alcohol issues.
Suddenly I was being successfull, I was working, the harder I worked the greater the success I felt.
I feel this way again, I have the hunger to be the best I can be and the best thing is I believe I can do it!
Confidence + Belief = Success

Happyness is - moving forward!!!!!
OK, if you have read my last two blog entries, which wallowed in self pity you'll have an idea of where I have been over the last few months.
I cannot say too much at this stage about my plans or what I feel is needed for me to move forward not that it's a big secret, but there are other people who need to hear my plans from me first, out of my respect for them it must stay under wraps for now.
My life is by no means back on track and my plans may not work, but the fact that I have begun to put change into action means I am moving forward whereas before I was dwelling on the cloud that surrounded me.
"if you always do what you've always done, you'll always get what you always got"
this is a powerful statement, powerful because when the cloud descends around you and you cannot see the wood for the trees it encourages you to change not in a massive way but just to try another way. change one thing - anything, it might be the simplest of change, language, tone of voice, asking for help or ideas.
It might all go 'Pete tong' but I'm trying, I have an 'aim' and that creates a pathway, "A way forward"
I'll keep you posted
