Week 6

This week we covered a lot of material pertaining to self-mastering. How do we choose the path and stay on the course. A few thoughts have been on my mind about this.

  I started back to school a few years ago in the Pathway program.  I registered basically out of the blue when the opportunity came.  I have always wanted to get a degree and I decided to give it another shot. In the beginning it took a bit to find my footing. I had not been to school in several years, it was new and intimidating.  But I found my rhythm and everything smoothed out.  I have sense hit a few turbulences but I have not quit, even though the temptation was there.   

 I am no longer a spring chicken, or let’s say I am a grandmother, a young one but still getting up there. My heath has been ok but over the last year I have had to make some adjustments in my life.  These include medicine, diet changes and being very consistent in my exercise.  The medicines and the exercise I have done a while so this was not a problem, the diet on the other hand has been a challenge.  I love dark chocolate. I could eat it every day, in fact I did.  But for the last month and a half, no sugar or chocolate. It was tough in the beginning I will admit but as time went on it just became part of an every day normal. 

Self-mastery comes in different ways and for different reasons but they are good and worth it when they change your life for the better. It is deciding what we must do to become who we are meant to be and then dong it.
