From Rambling On to a Decision…

I simply cannot let a whole month pass without posting at Leave The Office, but I don’t really have much to say. This blog has lost it’s way a little in the last few months, which I am OK with because I am happy to let things evolve naturally and the main reason things have dropped off here a bit is that I am engaging with my life’s passion; making music more than ever. However I, myself would like nothing more than to see the author of this web site manifesting "Leaving The Office" and to use his own personal experience as a way of inspiring others who have a similar desire to do so.

The time is approaching however. I can’t really say much, but I will be making real the intention quite soon and that is confirmed fact, not speculation. What happens exactly when I do leave the office is not yet clear. I may find myself in another office, but if that is the case then it will be an office very different from the type of office I have become used to in the UK.

In fact now I have quite a fondness for "The Office" because I realize that trying to escape or leave something is quite futile, seeing as the reality of what you are trying to move away from comes from within you anyway. Leaving the office has a somewhat different meaning for me than it did just over a year ago when this blog was born. What’s feels very good to me now also is that I won’t be leaving this place because I’ve had enough of it or because I can’t stand it. Quite the opposite. I like it here and I like the working hours, especially the time off that comes in long spells.

The reason I am moving on is because I have a whole new world and life to experience. One that is right there waiting for me to join in. It’s really exciting, a little scary, seeing as I don’t have any confirmed way of earning money as of yet, but the excitement and the sense of possibility & opportunity is stronger than the source of fear of unknown quantities and it is since I started my Weekly Songcast that my sense of purpose and my certainty of what I really want to do has become ever more clear and apparent. It’s the best feeling in the world, knowing what you want to do with your life and setting out to do it. In fact that feeling is enough to give rise to a feeling of certainty and knowing that success will present itself to you.

As it is often said that repetition of knowledge is what makes a difference I’ll repeat something that most people will already know. Making a decision is the biggest step and the most important one. It is what affirms your intent and focuses your attention on your chosen path like a laser. I have made a few decisions in the last few months and they have completely changed my world and made me feel one hundred times stronger and more certain of what I am doing. Even if my decisions had led me to a dead end very quickly, they still make you more certain because you have eliminated an ineffective path, which you would not have known was effective if you had put the decision off.

One such person who has helped inspire me to get to the point of making certain decisions recently is Tina at Think Simple Now. I send a heart-felt thank you to her.

Yes a decision is a demonstration of your personal power. USE IT!
