 So here we are, in a blink of an eye at week 12 and my first two subjects are at an end!  What have I learned? I've learnt that there is much more to learn!!! 😀 This is just the beginning and I am looking forward, with a little nervousness to be honest, to the next learning curve. Let's see what challenges it brings and I will continue to stretch myself and lean into this new pathway. Lxx

Nearing the end! We are now in week 11 of the first of two classes in my Interior Design Diploma, and how quickly it has past. Still in the early stages of this course, I continue finding myself questioning my abilities as it is all so new and foreign to me. I go in waves of 'I don't think I can do this' to 'Just think it through Lisa!!' Again, I remind myself that anything worthwhile is always a little hard and takes commitment, perseverance, stamina for the long haul and some positive thinking.  I will be happy to have a few weeks off soon to rest my mind, take a break and prepare myself for the next two subjects, being Bespoke Decoration and Design Drawing.  I suspect I again will be challenged and will do all the self talk to convince myself I am up for it. Where do I want this course to lead to?  Truthfully, I am not yet sure.  But I am sure if I leave myself open to the whole experience that it offers and the people I will meet along the way, I will find mysel...

 Such an interesting, stressful, educational, exhausting couple of weeks I have had! I catch myself questioning if I am doing the right thing in committing to this course, asking myself if I can actually pull it off, am I up for the longevity of it and is it all worth me sinking so much of my dwindling energy into it when I have so much on my plate!! Well, then I learn something new, find out I can do something that I thought I probably couldn't, even though it was a struggle and consumed hours of my time.  So, I will keep on persevering. Maybe it's something else in my life that needs to take a backseat in order for me to complete something that is bringing me a sense of achievement, pride in completed work and satisfaction just for me!! I'm nearly at the end of my first semester, so let's keep on going, keep trying and keep learning! L xx
