This is my very first rant! Ha..Ha..usually I suck it up and let it go...but fortunately, I get tired of people telling me from back home the tough love crap, don't be a victim, this is my life story, I've had to work all my life etc. etc. I'm not following their rules of what the world tells them to do and how to survive.
I get frustrated with people, because I have an entrepreneur mindset and it's way above their head. It doesn't make sense to them, and I feel like I'm on another planet emotionally, mentally, spiritually, and everything I say triggers them. I'm dealing sidewalk people that don't walk their walk and talk their talk.
My son is back home and I want him to be responsible for his choices. I teach him to have a higher mindset, and share books etc. He's doing what he can do on the other side of the ocean and has to deal with these people bashing me because I moved over to the Netherlands to get rid of the toxic lingo.
I study and work on my projects 8-19 hours a day all week long. I'm learning and growing as an entrepreneur. Sidewalk jobs aren't going to get me out of my situation. I wouldn't be doing everything I do, if I didn't want succeed in life.
There's things out of my hands and control and I can't make the process go faster. People want results now and forget there is a process to everything.
It frustrates me because I already know all this shit they lecture about, and learned the lesson four years ago. I know not to respond or interact with these people. If I do it's usually because they contact me.
I'm way passed the past and don't need the story, and bigger than the story. I'm sorry they're still stuck in the old me, but she's been gone since 2011.
There's nothing I can do to change these people, save them, fix them, or make finances appear out of the sky at their whim and wish. I do what I can every moment to get there.
I don't depend on anyone, and my sleeping schedule is screwed up from working on my projects. People have expectations and that's exactly why I'm going this route because I'm sick of hearing about their life stories and victim hood, at the same time them trying to convince me that I'm in victim hood, and I haven't asked them for a dime the last year and half. I walked out of the situation because success comes with making sacrifices.
I'm not one to mope over shit anymore. Life happens by my choices, and I get the whole tough love etc. I just don't care to listen to people that are in their circumstances and not really out of sidewalk mentality and expect me to revert back to it.
You can't go back to it, once you're out of it in your mindset. It totally doesn't make sense to do all this work and go back and say I'm fine with being stupid and making bad choices.
I'll be glad the day I can arrive some place financially they can all shut-up. Thanks for listening. I don't like complaining, nagging, or bitching, so I just broke my own rule. But sometimes I feel like I'm trapped in a world of people that try to drive you mad with their madness, or the other route I could drive myself mad, and my preference is to stay in a place where neither route gets to me negatively. I like to be peaceful and in balance.
