Was I supposed to start writing yesterday morning. Be that as it may, was inspiration not on my side at that moment. Hence, could I say that my intentions to write a new post on my blog missed the mark. Albeit, now do I feel up to par so as to write something inspirational. Thus, did I want to intellectualize a little bit about how not to come across weak in a conversation.
Am I going to put the cards on the table, and say that by no means am I am an assertive oral communicator. That is the truth to be blunt. However, in a manner of speaking, can I be effective at it by asserting myself on a few occasions. Truth be told though, is my confidence parallel to a Japanese skyscraper, swaying back and forth most of the time.
How can I remedy that though? In order to measure up to my own expectations am I going to need practice. Next time a beautiful girl jogs by for instance, instead of getting cold feet am I going to try to make a move. So as for that to happen am I also going to have to be able to stand up to bullies in due time, consequently will I need to lay groundwork.
In review, being assertive is a matter of practice. Besides, do I know I should start carrying out tasks so as to accomplish it. Having said that, I also think that a few hours of rest after a busy week will serve me well. Do I know that I incurred the loss of my job by quitting due to a flashback. Be that as it may, I know I still can come through and fix the situation.

First Aid... a topic that has been distant to me ever since I had the chance to attend a class in 2011.
Due to the fact that I had signed up for a CPR class on my birthday back when I was living in Canada; it was impossible for me to do it in parallel with my birthday activities. Silly mistake, but at least I got the chance to learn the expression " a pledge of allegiance" if it is of any consolation.
Only one time when I was in college here in Peru did I slightly experienced what it was to administer CPR on a patient. Even back then the procedure was very simple. I remember they would teach us how to do the chest compressions. Not to mention, they also taught us how to do the rescue breaths.
What's more, they even taught us how to use fire extinguishers, but that's a topic for another day.
On the other hand, is still hard for me to reconcile myself to the fact that I still have to keep on with my treatment so as to get better in due course. Back to CPR, do I think I have already broken the back of this post. Nonetheless, do I still have to add a few details. Would it not be easy for instance, to draw a parallel between CPR in the USA and its counterpart in Peru. Albeit, most of the of the Peruvian rules pattern themselves on the American model.
To sum things up, will I end up saying that I am going to share a video on the topic as usual. Not that I want to go down in even more details. Be that as it may, I neglected to mention the Heimlich manoeuvre, which is basically a method in which you apply pressure to someone's belly so as to remove something they had stuck in their throat. Last but not least, will I heighten your interest by encouraging you to watch this video which will supply the correct answers. Hopefully, carrying on writing will keep me on the straight and arrow.

Have I not exactly looked for advice from someone who has their head screwed on the right way lately. Albeit, have I tried to reason a way out of my problem. Not only by trying to clear out those negative thoughts, but also by trying to look for different activities so as to deal with my problem.
Have I already gone through convoluted explanations so as to recount my bad experiences. Hence, instead of catastrophizing even more; have I decided to go into the root of what occasioned my dilemma. Lately, have I been secluding myself more than usual and letting it lie instead of going to the doctor for assistance right away. Not only has it prevented myself from getting straightened out, but it also has delayed my recovery process.
Not to mention that my usual enthusiasm for doing the things I enjoy the most has completely deserted me. Thus, causing a major struggle. By my own admission, this all may have been caused due to me pussyfooting around instead of looking for a solution. Though, have I not had that much help from outside sources either. Thereby, what I have left to do now though, is fixing my thoughts in something positive, and starting a new routine.
Have all these recent hardships been scrambling my mind. Albeit, have I had the chance to get the help needed. Thus, do I have to stop ducking out of my responsibilities, and get things into motion.
Am I put out with myself for not having taken action sooner. Be that as it may, does it not mean that I still cannot start working at full throttle so as to not only redirect my thoughts, but also mould myself into a better person.

It was a rough day indeed. For some weeks now, have I experienced relapses of depression. In fact were they so strong that I could not even prevent myself from just lying in bed most of the day at times. Not to mention that I have received stern criticism from friends that do not understand my situation,
Was my treatment for depression cut short; due to me realizing that the professionals who were tending to me not committed to their work. Hence, have I resumed it not long ago. Irrespective of the treatment though, have I fallen into several relapses that were unbearable. Hence not only did this relapses retarded my recovery process, but they also hindered my usual composed behaviour. Not to mention that they also put my future plans out of joint. That alone jangled my nerves.
Be that as it may, have I found a way to get my plans of the ground. Having said that, I acknowledged there was no other way to be blessed than laying down my requests to God. Did I realized also that no matter how much work I have put in so as to accomplish my goals. If I do not follow God's path I am lost. Thus, the reason why I failed in the past. Crisis can bring the best of you only if you fight alongside The lord.
Lastly, I would say that today made a commitment with God that I would not resort to evil spirits so as to seek help. I wish though, that at times I was hustled out of danger by my guardian angel. I also have to admit that for years was I mad at The lord for not having helped me whatsoever during my darkest times. Even so am I glad now I haven't pulled out of being a Christian. Needless to say that I hope to get a no frills one-way ticket to heaven in the foreseeable future.

It's been exactly two weeks since I last published a post. Hence, have I had a hankering for writing at least once more. Be that as it may, do I still have to up my game so as to keep things interesting. Thus, today am I going to talk about my career path. Something I struggled with ever since I momentarily relinquished my right to make my own decisions during my late teenage years.
Recently, have I been pouring my heart out to some friends and reminiscing about my happiest memories learning English. You see, ever since I was little I have always had a knack for languages. Unfortunately though did I take it for granted. Consequently, did it take me more than a while to master it. However, in the past few years have I set great store by English grammar rules and vocabulary. Back to what I was talking about though. Am I going to give some instances if what I could choose for a career path.
For instance, one of the jobs I have been aiming for years has been teaching English. Albeit, have I also been slightly involved in interpretation as well. To me though, any job that involves English would suffice. However, have I had my work cut out trying to work at something other than teaching.
Hence, I have been fleeting from one activity to another looking for a job that could match my preferences.
Lastly, would I say that the most important thing to do when choosing a career path is to make your own decisions. One of the worst mistakes I made regarding the aforesaid statement was to trust my kin too much. Not to mention that I lost a lot of time doing that as well. Ergo, instead of beating a dead horse trying to pursue unrealistic dreams; or doing what other people tell you, you should do as follows: Take the necessary time so as too look for as many options as you can so as to find the best one. You shouldn't have an axe to grind when it comes to career path. You should love your job, and not necessarily money per se. Last but not least, you should pull out all stops trying to accomplish your goal.
