Shortly after beginning the process to start my own writing business, I decided to finally take the leap and start training for roller derby. I considered it a few times over the last few years, but my social anxiety and time constraints with my prior career prevented that from happening.
It’s an amazing thing, watching success unfold in more than one aspect of my life — what rewards you reap from hard work and passion. Today, after nearly six months of training and skating with a local recreation league, I joined the professional league. Now, I still have three months to prove I am worthy enough to the league, but I am better, stronger and more passionate with every practice.
Much the same with PURSUIT, my writing business.
I keep learning every day on the job. My writing skills and voice have both strengthened. With every new client and each completed project, I am more passionate. I love what I do. I enjoy making a flexible schedule that allows me the opportunity to explore additional passions. I’m even making a decent living. I have the work/play balance that I desire, and I feel I can finally be myself.
Bruises and all.
What is your passion? How are you creating the life you want — in either work or your free time?
