I figure this is the most effective way to achieve this goal. I want to make £200.00 per week initially working this way. I realise though it will take time to build a pipeline. Doing what i love means doing things on my terms, knowing that any result is a positive one, it teaches me and that life is a learning experience. Doing 20 hours a week is achievable and doesn’t seem absurb considering i’m also working 19 hours as a bar maid and 8 hours in a shop. This gives me a total of 47 Hours. If i feel overloaded i can always cut down my hours to just 39 a week and lose the shop job as it has served it’s purpose now.

This week i’ve been working for myself. I do need to become more disciplined. I love it when i am it gives me a sense of strength and power. I’m enjoying my job at the hotel doing bar work. I’ve had two excellent shifts so far, one quiet and one busy. Both were equally as nice. I’ve started working on a project for a company in scotland and i’m also marketing websites for our new company that myself and housemates have started. I need to start getting up earlier though so that i can get some momentum going. I can say that i am doing this now however! I love working for me. It’s hard work, it’s intense, but it’s freedom.

sometimes you just have to have faith. I have no idea what the job as a mortgage consultant will be like, and i do love property, so i’m going to have faith that i’ve fallen on my feet into a job that i will grow to love. I already love the company based on what i have seen. It’s sophisticated and vibrant! I’m looking forward to having a fantastic time here and shining in my new role! I asked my brain for a job that i love and this is the job i have been led too. Now it’s my turn to take control of my destiny and let fate do the rest of the work.

I’ve already sent out applications yesterday. Tommorow i’m going to do the follow ups on them. I’m looking for jobs that pay in excess of £1000.00 per month. I’m really happy with the job hunting i’ve done so far. Tommorow i’m going to step it up a level. Today i was refunded money of £38.00 from natwest bank for a standing order that was cancelled. They let me know that it was both our faults, but i’m glad i got the money back.
This has brightened up my day and contributes to me saving up six months worth of lving expenses. I must have a 40 hour week at around £8.50 salary to be making in excess of a £1000.00 a month. Alternatively i can take a minimum of £6.50 + commision on top. 37.5 hours is the standard requirement at most firms. I am more than happy to work 40 hours!

I love it when kate calls and asks me to cover i really do. It makes me feel wonderful knowing that i can work extra shifts at the job that i enjoy. I’m accumulating as many hours as possible. 29 hours is reasonable for this week i think. I need to call grandma in the morning to let her know i can’t come for tea though, which is a shame! Oh well an extra £20.00 to spend on a meal with nick.

It’s my fault really I should be going in today. I’ve decided though that this is the only time i’m going to get to myself this week with the net to look for another job. I’m don’t like the managers that i’m working with. I try to dismiss it, but it’s a problem i have and have to address. I feel that the best way to do this is to look for a new job. It’s a gamble as to what the people will be like, but i’m willing to take the risk.
The job i’m at at winecellar i’ve enjoyed for the last 7 months. I haven’t been at my waitressings job over a month and i’m not enjoying it. I think i’ve given it time and it’s just not me. I don’t like the falseness of having to smile at customers when you feel lousy, it’s like an act to me and i’m not a very good actress. Some people are.
I am, but not for long, then i start to get stressed out because i’m not being authentic. At my shop job i speak to the customers with love and authenticity. I don’t feel that i can do the same in my job as a waitress, because of the pressure the managers put you under. Without management i would handle it fine, it’s just this problem i have with authority.
I know this is my problem, something that i need to deal with through NLP probably. It’s just that i’m not at that stage at the moment and i feel the best thing is to get my cv today out to some companies and see what the response is. I like jobs that allow freedom, and flexibility. You spend most of your time working. I think it’s important to be most happy in this area of your life.
Still 25 hours is still reasonable considering i’m at college also. I still need to work on confronting my fears rather than avoiding them. Most of my fears involve what other people think of me. Today im going to do a couple of hours spiritual development to make sure that i address this. Waitresses are treated by management with such a lack of respect and patronisation and i’m not so great at handling these things. I saw the way the waitresses used to be treated in our hotel when i worked in surrey. It ran along very much the same theme. I’m tempted to get a job in a supermarket then i can up my hours when i leave college.

33 Hour week this week with my waitressing hours and my shop job. I’ve also done 10 hour college. I need to up my hours next week if it’s at all possible. Total salary of £150.00
At the moment next weeks hours stand at 29 hours. I really need another 11 hours next week or my salary that week will stay at £132.00
The following week i am on holiday and will be paid nothing whilst i am down in surrey with nick. The week after that i have only got 6 hours actually booked so that’s £30.00 only. This means i will have to save my money where possible to support myself in the following weeks.
During the first week of June i really need atleast 37 hours. I did have 36 hours this week, but i didn’t go in for 3 of them today which i’m disapointed with myself about. From now on there is no excuses for not going into work. It’s my most important priority right now to get the money i need to get to surrey to be with my boyfriend. The only time i can’t work is wednesday until 5pm and Thursday until 6pm, or monday until 1pm. Any other hours i must start fililng with contribution to create the income i really do need.
I’m surprised seen as i work around so much wine i don’t feel the need for a bottle more often! I think i’ll take a spiritual cleanse instead :)

It doesn’t matter what job i do around college, i just need to make sure whatever it is gives me fourty hours of pay. My pay can’t be lower than £5.05 per hour, even though that’s way below what i’m caperble of earning. For now i’ll have to settle so that i can achieve what i ultimately want to in my life. It’s only for 2 months that i have to manage working 40 hours + 16 hours of college, it’s no big deal, i’m sure i can manage it.
A pub job will certainly make things more entertaining in my life. I’ll also know that i’m contributing to society in my own way. I love working, i would rather be doing things my way, but for now i will settle for earning a wage from someone else. Nick is worth it and i dont’ want to throw away all the effort i’ve put into trying to pass my BHS stage one exam as it’s only a month until the exam! This will mean i will be able to work with horses, once i pass my driving test! More importantly i’ll be able to live in surrey with nick.
