Reset Your Life Day 2: Conduct a Life Assessment

Reset Your Life Day 2: Conduct a Life Assessment | Happy Black Woman | Helping Black Women Succeed in Life, Love & Business

I think this is major as most people tend to lie to themselves about anything important (yeah I said it, and?) so doing this Life Assessment is like an ULTIMATE truth session that ANYBODY can benefit from.

Initially I was all set to take a pic of my entry (I still like paper & pen vs a keyboard & machine) but, as this should for anyone, got a little too personal. If your answers don't shake you & rock you to your core, I don't think you're being honest enough with yourself. Either that or your life is just so peachy dandy perfect that you don't need to do this.

So I will share the following:
  • Lifestyle: I love all the space that I have & enjoy my freedom. I hate that I'm so damn disorganized! Though really it's a proper representation of my mind...all over the place! I'm so smart, I'm scattered. I dislike that I haven't finished decorating. I dislike that I don't get out to more events (Chicago is a HUGE city with PLENTY to do).
  • Education: There is no like/love. Instead I hate that I never finished my Associates for Graphic Design. After years of not going, I went back to school FULL TIME HARD CORE & was & still is 9 credits short of that degree. As a parent, I had to choose between work & school, providing for my son took precidence. I tried to go back a few years later online, only to foolishly switch majors & waste my time & loan money.
Not only do I want my Associates, I want my Bachelors degree as well. I LOVE Graphic Design & need to see what's being taught now. I deserve my degree; I was self taught before I started & learned plenty!

Alrighty then, enough sharing from the open book that is my life. Again, please understand that I see things differently than the average person. We're trained to lie to ourselves, & I'm so honest, most people can't handle it. But thats ok, cause I LOVE ME! Love yourselves enough to tell yourself the truth about ANYTHING because in the end, you're only hurting yourself.

always forget to do my lips!
I'd make myself SICK trying to eat this! Visited the Hershey store on North Michigan Ave today! Ohh my LAWD that's a lotta chocolate!
The journey continues...

  2. I know, everybody & they damn momma gonna be nagging me to go back to school. On my list of things to do for the new year, but probably won't happen till Fall semester at this rate. (but I am known to pull last minute registration miracles)

    Like if all I do is just get the Associates in Applied Science, I'll be happy enough with that.
