Hello! Today I have a wonderful guest post from Carly. Carly describes herself as a “completely computer-clueless stay-at-home mom, which is made possible by the fact that she’s also a full-time blogger—writing mostly about parenting and blogging tips” at Mommyonpurpose.com.
I used to see headlines like these and roll my eyes.
For most of my life I’ve been something of a skeptic—actually, I don’t like that word. Let’s call it realist.
I’ve always been realistic. I understand that nothing extraordinary simply falls into your lap. Life tends to reflect what you make of it, influenced, of course, by your circumstances. That’s not pessimism; it’s just reality—and I’m okay with that.
I figured it was better to stay grounded: work hard, make the most of your situation, and avoid chasing unrealistic pipe dreams.
So I have to laugh when I tell you that the “waitress to blogger in nine months” story is true—because it’s my story.
