Life As A Self-Directed Individual

Some of the biggest things in my life have happened this year. Not just relationally, but otherwise as well. I have moved over to become a person who is a boss, an in-charge of own life, and a person who is structuring well. I am keeping a way that I can track hours and love to schedule myself, my employees, and my friends. I have made great strides in how I live and have structured a great sense of structure as a self-directed individual. To the uninitiated, self-direction is like a company. But it's my own company. I do the hiring, I plan the schedules, and I structure meetings. I advocate for myself and I make the support broker happy. I self-direct fully and functionally and I stay on track or at least try to. Self-direction is hard? yes, but I've proved that I can direct myself better than I did in any of the previous settings due to the maturity and knowing that "it's all on me." I wouldn't change the apartment lifestyle for anything or being in self-direction for anything. I'm lucky to have people on my team and I'm lucky for them to help listen to me when I'm on track and help me when I'm not. But in the end, it's all me and I couldn't be prouder. Almost six months of being almost on my own and I'm doing so well and can't complain- despite the extra paperwork, my life is sweet! Stay tuned for the next topic: friends why I need them in order to socialize and strengthen myself.
