Recently,Β a friend asked me how it is going with the discipline. At first I thought he meant my cats or my husband! πŸ˜€ (hahah)

He meant my new ‘work’ life as a self-employed person. It brought forth a common theme that I revisit regularly in my posts and my life – maintaining some kind of schedule or ‘discipline’.

This past week has been the second Eid (Eid-al-adha) holidays that finally marks the end of the Ramadan season for this year. We will have almost 10 weeks now without any further interruptions in work routines (perhaps a day here or there), but for the most part, everyone – including myself – can rely on a more regular pattern of life. Although we are still waiting for ‘normal’ life to return, we have fallen into a pattern of sorts for the time being. However, as you can see from my posting calendar, I have not been able to stay ‘on-schedule’ this week with hubby home and making plans to see people while they are still free.

As I wrote before, it is a bit difficult for me to find the right balance still between allowing my new freedom to be just that and my habitual inclination to need to feel ‘busy’ or ‘working’. Of course, I do need to work on my business, promote a new course for my yoga teacher as part of an agreement/venture, blog, write, and so on. There is always something to do, no doubt.

Perhaps once I can do my writing and office work at home, I will find myself more disciplined. For now, I am working on preparing myself for an influx of clients and being open to their potential timings, which means more flexibility in my sleep hours, etc. πŸ˜› So, baby steps, but every moment and every change contributes to where our future is heading; therefore, I am confident that it will not be a matter of discipline, but rather a contented new way of life. πŸ™‚
