Day 183: Cooking In Life

As I mentioned in an earlier post I was let go from my steady job on June 30, 2010. I loved my job and I learned so much in the 3 years that I was there. It was kind of like going to business school. Well, in that sense I've graduated from school and now I am in the kitchen. How is that possible you may ask? Well, now that I am living on an income of $1500 a month...things have changed. My wasteful spending, my dreaming, even my daily tasks. So in order for me to keep my sanity I got in my "kitchen " of my life.

I prepared my vision of my meal ( my vision). I did this by updating my vision board the other night with my updated goals and visions. I got really clear about what type of meal I wanted in my life. Its a rather balanced order I've set. I need balance all around. So next, I went shopping ( with this step, I reviewed what resource items I needed to make my 'meal"). Next, I went grocery shopping ( this is when I had to go out and buy what I needed), this included buying my laptop ( I didn't have one), and also buying notebooks. Now I'm cooking in all areas of my life.

I have so many projects going on so in meal planning terms, I'm cooking. I like cooking because all individual food items are not "ready" at the same time. I will give you an example, today, I was applying for jobs and freelance gigs and all, and I received an email stating that two travel posts that I had written had been posted on this American Airlines site. I was like cool.

So next up I received an email about an acting gig I applied for two weeks ago. I also received an email from a job that I had submitted to 3 weeks ago. So I am cooking. Not just in my career life, but my love life, and also my spiritual life, and my travel life.

I am cooking a fine meal right now in life. I never knew I'd enjoy the process so much.
