Today I reflect on my journey from high school teacher to magazine entrepreneur to published author. I take my husband’s advice and remember to breathe fresh air, and pause, to contemplate all I’ve accomplished.
It’s easy to ponder upon what’s coming, to worry about what’s undone. I worry about getting my novel, The Yard, out and having copies distributed in my home country. I worry that I’m not focusing on my day job. I worry that I’m not eating all the right foods or sticking to my gluten free diet. I can list 10 things I’m worried about daily.
So today, I decided to stop. Today I started reading The Fault in Our Stars. And I know we’re not always in control. We are what we are.
Things to be grateful for this week:
- My husband has got my back! (I can relax a little)
- My publishers are doing an awesome job! (Investing so much time and effort into my debut)
- The Yard was featured in the Hindustan Times (India), The Pioneer (New Delhi), the Oman Daily Observer (Oman), and the Business Standard (India). Little victories as we move forward. http://www.hindustantimes.com/books/straight-from-our-bookshelf-riveting-tales-of-travel-greed-and-love/story-NBgsaEcII9Ud0uHSbVEGdP.html
