MY SUPPORTS
1. Children
I believe my children have been my number one supporter prior to my returning back to school especially when I was between a rock and a hard place and I needed direction. Without them being there I don't believe my achievements in life would have been as successful as they have been.
2. Family
Having a close net family has always been a positive characteristic in my family for as long as I can remember. If I mention something I want to do and ask for my family's support (as long as it's within reason) I can depend on their support.
3. Staff
My staff has been awesome in supporting my decision to open a day care center. This is so important because having a supportive staff allows less time for challenges to enter into the plan and you can allocate work and know that it's going to be completed with excellency. Without their support my work days would be very long and I probably would feel most days like giving up.
4. Church Family
My decisions are based on answers and directions I receive from prayers. In the past I have "went out on a limb" in other words, on my own will and I have not had the backing (prayers and financial support) from my church family. Those attempts were failures. I believe because I did not seek direction first was the cause of those failures.
5. Friends
I only keep a small circle of close friends. We
are there for each other regardless of any situation, or any time of
the day or night. Our conversations stay within our circle but at the
same time we can accomplish great things once we put our thoughts and
actions together. Without their support my sense of direction and hope would be lost.
I
believe it is so important to have a good support system that unselfish
and that looks out not only for themselves but others first. Many challenges we face today not only can have impact on our lives but also the others we are connected to. Without having that support from our family, colleagues/staff, or friends we face issues by ourselves. Eventually I will add more individuals to my support system but for right now it's just what I need to make through each day.
