Hi steemers! I'm Phillipa from the beautiful island of Nassau, Bahamas. I am on a journey to financial freedom.
"Your time is limited, so don't waste it living someone's life" - Steve Jobs
I've been shy for most of my existence and I am now challenging myself to step out of my comfort zone, become more socially outspoken and seize the damn moment. My social life is non-existent besides hanging with my girlfriend who is also a homebody. We both smoke and as much as I would love to point the finger, before I started smoking weed or meant her I was pretty lazy and hated socializing. I can only blame myself but to acknowledge there is a problem is the 1st step, right?
I always had that little burning sensation to do something meaningful with my life but I was suck on the "HOW?" for a very long time. I thought at 27 years old I would've had everything worked out. But the years kept passing and life kept happening!
Recently, I had a moment of clarity. My purpose! And it requires me to be everything but shy. A complete transformation to become the person I want to be.
Have you ever faced your fears head on? Well that's exactly what I plan on doing. I am going to battle with my fears.
I am quitting my job, January 2018!
I've been sitting behind the same desk for 7 years and I am hanging by a thin thread. My job has now become soul sucking and I just can't take that 9-5 slavery life anymore. It's just not my calling. Some days I am so depress, having a smoke makes me feel as though it's the only way I will get through the day, yes I know - SMOKING IS NOT THE ANSWER. I am a working progress. But back to quitting my job, it's going to be the scariest fucking thing I ever did. Yes, I am going to leave my stable, secured job to become an entrepreneur in this shitty economy.
I am doing it to prove to not only myself but everyone just like me, if I can do it so can you. Yes, I am afraid I'll fail but shit I rather try and fail than to not try at all. I've been suckered into my previous way of thinking but I now know...
Besides being passionate about self-growth and financial freedom, I love travel and all things pink :).
