Very well said, Tess! If we never pause right now and enjoy what we have, we’ll always be looking for what we do not have and never enjoy our blessings today. Enjoy and be blessed!

Easy to fall into the trap that “more” will make us happy.
I know first hand that cycle of wanting more, getting more and then wanting more all over again. Spent a lot of years caught up in that and it got me no where, least of all… happy.

As a fempreneur running two businesses, I find myself seduced by the “more” trap every so often. When I have “more”, I won’t have to work so hard I’ll tell myself. When I have “more”, I’ll be able to extend my reach I’ll tell myself. When I have “more”, things will come easier I’ll tell myself.

Yet, I know better… the “trick” is to be happy with what I have… feel proud about what I’ve accomplished… and embrace that I already have MORE… more than I need. I simply need to embrace it.

Thanks. Sometime ago I took quite a long break from blogging. I do love to blog, but my life had become out of balance. For me, getting it back on the path to correct balance required that I change my focus for a time.

It was a well thought out decision that brought up a lot of fear that my blog would not recover from such a long break. Yes my Alexa ranking dropped but it is now recovering. But, more importantly, I found that my joy in life increased. My ability to help others increased. I found that my break gave me just what I needed to become a better blogger.

So sometimes we have to feel the fear and do what we think is truly right for us anyway just as you did.
