The 11.11 sojourn: I want to be resilient

Hope this post finds you all doing okay. I was so unmotivated to write this and that isn't great because it is just day 2. What happened? I suddenly realized that there are a bunch of steps to be taken before my website is fully discoverable. Thinking about it alone kind of drains me. While looking at my list, I saw this "I want to be resilient". I immediately knew what I was telling you about today.

A resilient charcoal scribbling.

Disclaimer: The word resilience is going to come up a lot but bare with me. I am manifesting my wants into existence...

Day 2: I want to be resilient

Okay, it is not that I lack resilience but I think what I have is not enough. What is resilience? According to the American Psychological Association, "Resilience is the process and outcome of successfully adapting to difficult or challenging life experiences...and adjustment to external and internal demands". This is the part where I am lacking. For the longest time, I thought I was so good with change and that I could handle it all but honestly I hate it. I hate anything that forces me out of my comfort zone. I hate it when I have to constantly talk to people. Most of the time, I honestly hate doing anything. I would rather just sit and wait for things to happen. Whenever it gets hard, I stop. It is almost like someone presses the stop button. I however believe that I have it in me to be resilient. I have it me to actively work through all forms of challenges. It is just going to require all of me. I don't know how ready I am for it. I have already been fallen back on some things that I should have already done. This wasn't something I thought would happen immediately. I am however willing to work to work for it. Resilience is going to come up a lot because I feel like it was of the primary aspects when it comes to successfully completed anything.

Typing this required a lot of resilience. I feel like I am endlessly ranting. Anyhow, I am glad to be doing this. I think it is a great way to end my day.

Quick question: What do you guys think of the name of this segment; "The 11.11 sojourn". I honestly kind of like it. It is so me but what it does not seem like something someone would look up. Let me know.

I hope you enjoy reading this. Thank you.

Sincerely,
