Hey There Non P, Hope you are having a good day... I just felt compelled to comment on this feed, as I was loving EVERYONE'S comments... I love East Dulwich at the best of times, but this just made me happy to live here. You are all so lovely and supportive. I just wanted to put it out there that I found myself in a bad place 3 years ago when I couldn't get work in my trained profession, and was really struggling surviving financialy in London. I was lucky enough to have some great friends who helped me start my own business, and i've found that working on that over the past 3 years has totally given me a focus and a drive and most importantly HOPE! Most people I meet these days seem in a simialr position, so knowing that I think makes you feel less alone doesn't it and I have learnt so much doing this business it has totally helped. Importnat things to do are: Make sure you are eating well! It's so key. Get out the house and go on walks, excercise actually releases happy hormmones to make you feel better. Read positive books, if you feed your brain with good information it always makes me feel better. Feel the fear and do it anyway is a good one by susan jeffers or the slight Edge by Jeff Olsen. And on the financial front, have you heard of the book Rich Dad Poor Dad by Robert Kioyosaki... It's a great book to help you see how to get out of the rat race :-) I sometimes go to LWL in Dulwich and there is a lady there who teaches about finiancial know how, It's free to go to and she might have some words of wisdom. Plus it is nice to surround yourself with other woman focusing on the future. PM if you want to ask any more questions, And I heard a great quote the other day. 'It will be alright in the end, and if it's not alright... well then it's not end' Everthing will come good. Much Love xxx
