*Infoy*Re: Re: TotW: Halfway Checkpoint
How has the first half of your year been? What have you accomplished?
--> Oh, my gosh... I've been overflowing with accomplishments. Maybe the average person wouldn't necessarily see what I've done as HUGE but I know it is. I've started a blog, built my Fiverr profile and my Upwork profile (the upwork one is newer so still in progress but still) I have been building my resume. Applying and working sporadically with transcription jobs, I am enrolled in over 100 classes online which I'm not taking all at once but I am taking, I gained so many certficiates they don't fit on any resume, I am a member of P.O.W.E.R- Professional Organization of Women of Excellence Recognized, I got certified in cpr, first aid and customer service. I have been clean for 2 years. I got my dyfs case closed from when my son was just born.
I mean.. only 2 years ago I was a heroin addict who wasn't working and had no intention to. Now my focus and goals are bigger than I could have ever imagined or dreamed of.

How has your last week been? How are you doing today? What are you working on right now?
---> I had a really nice week actually. I took my son to the Bronx zoo for his first time. Today was okay, I dipped half my body in my pool with my son then we both equally babied out and changed our minds hahaha, Damn broken pool heater. Right now, I am working on building my blog, growing my transcription business, completing as many courses as humanly possible and just continue to learn.

Where is your year headed? What are you on track to achieve before 2020?

----> Hopefully more work with transcription. As great as everything is going I'm still really not making money. The foundation is 100% there TO MAKE MONEY and do great things but I just haven't gotten the jobs and connects yet to do it I guess. Time will tell hopefully.

What has been occupying your headspace lately? What are you thinking about?

----> Two things.
1. I have gained so much weight from having a child 2 years ago and then sitting at a computer day in and day out. I don't eat the way I should and I don't exercise like I should. I'm not healthy and it's starting to weight down on me and show in many areas of my life including my energy
2. all I think about is making money. not because I'm money hungry but because my fiance was injured and is out of work and we have a child. I put a lot of pressure of myself mentally to support myself and my family and as a new freelancer just starting out, its a lot to push on yourself.
