My computer is finally back up and running smoothly, but I am still waiting to hear about my missing files. Before my hard drive crashed, I was getting ready to start setting up my online store. Due to this crash, I have lost a lot of valuable time. I have lost an entire month of set up time, now I am one month behind. Even though I suffered a major setback, I am still pushing forward toward my goals and dreams. Trials are a test of your true commitment to your dreams. If you decide to give up during your first setback, then you will never succeed. These "tests" are learning tools. The big thing that I have learned is the importance of frequent backups. I plan on purchasing a portable hard drive this week and will create a schedule for backing up my files. This experience also showed me how important this dream is to me. I am excited about my plans. I am not sure what happened to my files, but I still have my vision implanted in my mind and heart and that cannot be erased.
Tip of the day: Do not let setbacks derail your dreams. Turn your trials into learning experiences. The lessons you learn will make you a much stronger and wiser person.
