where do you find the "get up and go" to go for what you want? what inspires you to go for your dreams....especially if your kids lives depend so much on you?
and PLEASE, no "faith in god and jesus and alah and blah blah" stuff.....real stuff one could use, ONLY.

I wish I knew the answer to this question being a parent myself , perhaps if you set your goals to suit your life style it would not be so hard .
Single parents have to be father mother , house keeper and football coach , and for married couples it's not much different .
I am a sculpture , my work sells faster than I make it . I'm also a Dad with four children to raise , the frustration between finding a balance between your families needs and your own goals is a hard one .
I sympathise with you the answer is balance , the means is a pie in the sky.

Dee I'm 50 have 3 grown kids and have had a varied life. Recently my job has got me down so much I cried with depression. Then my wife told me her job was getting her down too. She went online and in 10minutes had signed up for a small engine mechanic course. I dunno why, but all that grey suddenly went. Like hey, you still have choices! Wake up! There's still time. You still can you know. Do anything you want. Just have to realise that again and move toward it. I think we all reach a place where we are despondent for a while; it doesnt matter why we get there. But being there helps us to reprioritise and get some perspective again. Give it time, take it for what it is a time of reassessment, and dont let it get to you. Use it for your self, I'm sure you will come out the other side much brighter and fresher. Take care and all the best.
