Volunteering: God or Bad!
Wow!! Its been a long time since I visited my own blog. Not because I didn't want to but because I just did not have the right words to say and its my damn blog. There has been so many things going on in my life and career that now Im into a world that I truly love and that is joining the world of fashion and promotions. Now, my mom always said that I had the "Gift of Gab", that I could sell a turtle a shell, but you truly don't believe what others say about you until you see it for yourself.
You know, when you are starting a dream, you have to be prepared for the good and the bad and if you are not you are going to be dealing with so many emotions that you might feel like you are going to explode. Thats where I am. Its is true that the saying goes" it takes a village to raise a child". Well in my case "It takes a team, to build a brand". Not one person can build a company by him or herself, eventually your going to need help the larger you become.
Now with that said, I always believe in interning and volunteering for the greater cause of giving yourself education, teaching, networking and so fort, but my question is :
When is too much volunteering enough? When do you say, Im helping you with your dream, when do I have time for mines?" How do you save money when you're volunteering for your dream as well?
When do you decide to tell the company your dedicating your precious time, knowledge and experience that either you began to see some monetary dividends, or officially becoming apart of the company or you might have to ask for a simple letter of character or reference and move on. Now, I don't mean just quit! Way your options, have a plan B or even a plan Z for that matter!
You never know talk to the company that your volunteering for, establish a time frame to when they are able to fully put you on the company payroll, make a contract, even if your an independent contractor. Apply for positions that are currently open with in the company, ask your supervisor how much she/he is willing to pay as in salary, Is the position you are doing now the one she/he currently needs to fill, etc.?
Now me, I don't mind volunteering especially because it helps me transition into my dream, into a field that I had minimal experience in. Don't be afraid to ask to help, to volunteer for the company you want to work for or learn from, but don't forget your ultimate goal!!!!!!!
Ciao Bellas!!!

AVOIDANCE
Sometimes, and I can be real and honest in saying this I try to avoid things that are truly complicated. Why I dont know. Maybe because facing the problem or situation being avoided means in some way I am guilty, or feel defeated or just maybe at some point I have lost my level of trust in me or "it" or sub consciously I maybe dont want to deal or even care at some point anymore. ther euse to be a time where I did own up to my faults. Where I didnt care about the descriptions others had upon my head.....
I avoid the issues that probably sould help me conquer alot of personal issues- Im not afraid to say it. Im not perfect, not even close! What I am is real, honest and genuine. what I am not is 100% brave. Im the scarecrow and the lion and dorothy wrapped up in a 4'11 frame! Oh wait I have more space DD's! lmao.

I feel sometimes humans carry around avoidance. Avoidance of work issues, relationship, friends, lovers, gender, church, medical etc. Why dont we let go? how do we let go? We talk, we conquer, we hit the pavement running!!
In avoidance, I think everyone at some point becomes num to the stuation or tries to deeply bury the feelings that come along with any hard core situation. But how do will deal? Do we attack and face whatever it is we are avoiding? Why are we even avoiding it? Are we avoiding the situation? the Problem? Is it a person?
Do we acually know and can Identify with it, that is when we can deal with the situation at hand!
Me sometimes avoidance is best! But other times Im the dagger that runs straight through!
But I ask my self Why do I always have to take on the dagger roll? Why Dont I sometimes take on the flesh? If you understand what I mean.
Does avoidance mean you are defeated? Does it mean you are a coward? Does it mean that you are unreliable at times? I dont know. What I do know I know from personal experience Sometimes you avoid a problem or person because you just simple dont want the headache or the admittance of defeat! Or just simply being vulnerable to the situation or the person.
Im stating to day from this point forward, I will not avoid anything. I will take the consequences bitter with the sweet by the reins and keep pushing forward!!!
NO MORE AVOIDANCE!!!!!
