Good Evening Cage friends,
You know there can be so much that goes on in a year. This season has been so very interesting and it is about to take a turn in 2024.
Inside of the last 72 hours I have received such news from different sources of friends, family and strangers. It has been such a remarkable turn of events.
This coming year is going to be filled with so much positivity. There are so many good things that are going to occur this coming year unlike I have ever received or known before.
I applied for a foreman position and earlier today I received a phone call from my friend who I had put on my reference sheet. He was calling to let me know he had just finished speaking with the supervisor who had interviewed me and that all flows of conversation were massively positive. I could have done a better job of representing myself in the interview, there were plenty of times where I felt I had used a poor example and immediately thought of 4 better scenarios to illustrate my point instead. But all in all I was very happy with how I represented myself and the ways that I showed up inside of myself authentically and as the best version of me that day.
Funnily enough on that day of work after my interview it was one of the toughest days I have worked in a while. But I managed to get through to the best of my ability and I sit here now on my weekend enjoying my time.
I had also arranged a chance to play at an indoor golf simulator and went with some of my friends, it turned out to be the weirdest series of phone calls I had received.
My father called to inform me that my sister's long term health concern had reared its head and that she needs to get scheduled for emergency surgery.
I then got a random call from "Amazon" trying to inform me about my iPhone 13 purchase to which I immediately hung up.
I got a random phone call from someone who was breaking up and I could not hear them at all. So I said "Im not interested in whatever you're selling, have a nice day" and hung up. Which sparked a brief dialogue among my friends about how politely I shut that salesperson down.
Within another 5 to 10 minutes I got another phone call from someone asking if my house was still for rent and after a brief conversation and exchange of information I have a time set for when they are going to take a tour of the property to see if they are interested in staying here. But I also realized that the random "salesperson" hadn't actually been a random salesperson and I felt I had been a touch rude in my dismissal of them.
The most interesting part of all these series of events is that each one is a testing ground to expand my situation, skill, ability, capability and develop the future. I have an abundant number of opportunities opening right in front of me and all I need to do is walk into the future.
There is a shift here that is going to alter the course of my trajectory for the rest of my life. This year of 2024 is going to be such a place of Transformation in my life. There will be exponential growth in positive ways in all areas of my life.
It starts with one moment, one decision. The choice we have right now.
I had stopped in at a friend's house on my way home. He asked me what my weekend entailed. I didn't tell him anything because I don't have transparent conversation with him I have honest conversation with him. I gave him the most watered down and flat answer, that was the most basic I could make it.
I didn't share any of the meditation and spiritual ritual that I am developing for myself. I didn't share about my choice of exercise and meditation, my golf swing practice and how I would spend time with Mikayla. There is so much of who I am that I don't fully share with those around me. But I am learning to establish my own boundaries and work at creating what I need to thrive. The ways I communicate and the level I communicate I try to match the wavelengths of what someone offers.
I have to learn to give just as much is offered so that I save my energy for those that give of themselves. I need to recognize my worth and I am beginning to, such that it is truly reserved for those that hold a special place in my life and household. The family and friends that have earned a place in my heart that I choose to hold close to me.
I just felt like sharing some of what has happened in my life in the last few days. I really am excited about what the future holds and I cant wait to see what is right around the corner.
I hope part of my journey can be inspiring to those that take the time to read my words today. I thank you.
