I wanted to let you know that if at any point in your life you start a new project and its super hard and you work and work at it and you finally are starting to feel like you are on top of it - then something happens that is your fault and you get setback just a bit - that will hurt but that is also Heavenly Father keeping you humble.
This week I was feeling really good - all my clients seem to be doing great and I was thinking "wow I'm doing really good for once" but then the next day I found out one of my hastags was corrupted and went to a bad site, then I totally messed up on dates for a client session and totally forgot that I had a credit card on file and a client had to remind me - all small things but together it was enough to put me really low. I know mistakes happen and I've always been so thankful for the opportunity to learn but man it's still painful. I was embarrassed and I owned up to my mistake and apologized - not easy when we are suppose to close on a house and my income i needed more than ever!
Still I know its not the end of the world. I will get back up and try again. Being a VA has tested me so much and has made me get back up and up again when I would rather sit there and lick my wounds.
I'm sure Sydney and London will have these often in their lives - I hurt for them even know but also know they rise up, learn and be better for it.
Failing at this one task does not make me an failure - just a learner. I have to keep telling myself this even though I am in deep of the pity me moment. We are so blessed and continue to be blessed.
I am thankful to learn and to try again and get better.
