![]() CrossFit…I’ve only just got comfortable picking up a 14kg kettlebell in my home, never mind trying to pick up a man at a CrossFit gym. So I have been thinking of other ways to “put myself out there” and go where it’s raining men. Maybe I haven’t met anyone yet because my heart has been closed to meeting someone for a long time, and energetically, I haven’t been giving off the vibe that I’m open to men coming my way who knows? But in my experience, not many men practise yoga at the studios I have attended. Have I met anyone romantically? Nooooo! I practise yoga at least five times a week at a yoga studio as I love doing it. My version of “putting yourself out there” means leaving your home at least a couple of times a day to do the things you love. I very rarely drink alcohol, and I don’t enjoy those environments anymore. Maybe because there is some truth to them or maybe because I am “putting myself out there” but not in the way of going to the bars and clubs. Ok, I won’t say that and be cheeky, but those words can frustrate me. And what on earth does putting yourself out there mean? Does it mean going to a bar and having a few drinks? If I hear another person say, “put yourself out there”, I will probably reply with, “Why don’t you try putting yourself out there and let me know how you get on love!”. “You have got to put yourself out there,” they say. So how do you meet someone? That’s what I desperately want to know… Ready To Start Dating… Put Yourself Out There Before you can arrange a date, though, you have to meet a person to date. But that statement made me aware of how ready I am to start dating. I had never said those words before, so they surprised me. Delicious! Then the words left my mouth, “I am so bloody sick of being single now”. ![]() While cooking, I thought how lovely it would be to have a pizza, sex and a cuddle with a man tonight. Last Friday, after being out for most of the day, I came home to my little, cute, cosy creative space, and I started cooking again for one. I chose to heal after feeling heartbroken and maximise the single season by investing time and energy into myself. Being single for this amount of time has been out of choice. Ok, so I have been single for two and a half years. Does this mean I am ready to start dating? Is this evening routine going to help me to meet a man? Absolutely not! Ready To Start Dating While these nights satisfy my soul, I want to be curled up in bed with a man for some nights. Then by 8 pm, I will be showered, curled up in bed with a book, and asleep by 9 pm. In about half an hour, I will have a nutritious, hearty sweet potato and cauliflower curry that I made earlier in the slow cooker…yum. This morning I’ve been to the yoga studio instead of going tonight because I like to hibernate in the winter evenings. I switched the lamps on, lit my candles and made a homemade ginger herbal tea. Whatever your goals may be, take this year to begin to define them and walk in them.It’s a rainy, dark late afternoon in London as I begin to write this. Soon you’ll walk into rooms and that confidence will speak for you, your abilities will be well recognized and your name will not only open doors for you but for those with you as well. ![]() The more you nurture yourself, the better the imagine will begin to appear. Let this be the year you begin working on self love. Let’s use this second half of 2022 to begin changing those habits! Or even the fear of applying for that job because we didn’t feel qualified or the right complexion to make it pass the interview, if we got the interview.Ī lot of time in our lives we have all of the knowledge, the skill and the blessings to achieve these things but we hold ourselves back. Fear of starting that business because we didn’t believe we would have the support. Fear of moving to that city cause it was far from home. Sometimes we have caused stagnation in our own lives at times out of fear. When was the last time you stepped out on faith with something you felt you were led to do? Not a half hearted effort, like really decided this was your move and it had to be made regardless of what was going on in your life?
