Big Walkies help me to decide what I want to do when I grow up!

Ollie and I dodged the rain and went on 'Big Walkies' yesterday. It was great to see all the flowers and plants and somehow Ollie avoided rolling in nastiness so no dog wash was necessary when we got home so all in all it was a great success. We had to time it very carefully as when the rain came down it was 'biblical' as people have been reporting!
Ollie seems to be in a more restful mood today and hasn't even got up yet!
All this walking is good for clearing my mind and helping me decide on what to do in future.
I am enjoying my teaching job which is part time. In a little while I aim to reduce my hours further so once I have sold my house and reduced my living costs I would like to try something new.
Last year I trained as a professional Will Planner. I enjoyed meeting people and helping them to ensure their last wishes were recorded. The company I worked with is excellent and provide a great service but as I live so far away I had to try and establish my business a long way away with little money for marketing which I found was     impossible to juggle alongside my teaching job so I have decided not to continue.
(I would definitely recommend the company and if you live within travelling distance of The West Country and would like to make a Will let me know and I will put you in touch.)
I am still a distributor for Utility Warehouse helping people save money on their Utilities and long may that continue. The support and training offered is excellent. In fact the support and training helped to further spark my interest in Personal Development.
I have always been interested in  Personal Development and have been lucky enough to benefit from various counselling courses and coaching related to my various roles. I have found this training along with self directed study- reading books and attending Webinars has really helped me to live the life that is right for me. It has helped me decide on what is truly important in my life and what I can let go of.
As I have explored Personal Development I have started to focus on a role that I would really like to explore. I am looking into the possibility of becoming a Life Coach.
I have started to look at various training courses and when I have sufficient funds to undertake the training and marketing necessary I will proceed. Life Coaching is something I could develop on a part time basis and if I am able to help people enough I will be able to increase the number of clients I can work with  as I reduce my teaching hours.
I think this is a good time to offer this service. I have a lot of life experience now and so I think I am in a good position to listen to others and to help them to decide on the actions necessary for them to achieve their goals and dreams.
