Signs You Might be Single for a While

I have stated on my other blogs, that I am a faithful member of  The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints , so that is just going to be the forewarning on this blog post. Since we are all about the family, you want to be married one day and have your own family. Being a 25 and single young woman of "marrying age", it can be difficult to get a date every now and again. But on my drive home tonight, I got a chance to contemplate the the working gals (and guy?) problem of being single. Here are what (in my opinion, nothing is peer reviewed) are the reasons that I (or a person like me) may be single for a while. And let me tell you what, there is NOTHING wrong with being single if you are working on bettering yourself and fulfilling your dreams. I know I am still young and there are tons of things for me to do! Let me also just put in a snippet that if you are married, you can still do what you want, even if you have some road blocks. All I Think About is Work - Even if ...

Don't Let Your Thought Deter Your Actions

For this blog post I would like to talk about Self Image. Your self image can make or break you. If you say you don't have an insecurity, I call your bluff. I do, however, believe that you can look past your insecurities. To say being insecure is a bad quality is an overstatement. Everyone wants to see themselves for what they wish they could be. I am not here to preach to you, because believe me - even in my personal life and my work life - I too have insecurities.  For the past couple of weeks I have been taking a class called "Star Achievement" . I have learned a lot about myself in my professional and personal aspect. I am more confident at work but less confident in my personal life. Sometimes I just want my work life to copy on to my personal life. I think I would be a lot more successful as an individual. Today I learned that you can be. You might have to take some of your work tactics into your personal life. One of my things I LOVE to do, is make lists. I l...

Nail Polish and Pens

It is 6:30 in the morning, the alarm goes off. You hit snooze, it is so warm under the covers. 15 minutes passes, and that is 15 minutes too soon. You wake up in a hurry, try to find the cleanest thing on your floor, because lets face it... that is where all the clean and dirty laundry ended up. You slap on some make up and go out the door.  If I had 1 extra hour in my day, and 1 less hour at work, I could get everything done outside of work. How come my proficiency in my work cannot transfer to my life? Oh I know... it is because I am tired. Who knew being an almost 25 year old young single lady could be so difficult? It really isn't, but you have so many things going on. Do you even know what goes on in my mind? Let me give you a snippet, without a ton of detail. I wake up, think of how badly I do not want to wake up. Then I think about what to wear and how to do my hair and makeup. I get to work and it is a discombobulation of manager requests, project, and emails. Finall...
