I have mixed emotions. I can safely say now that as late as Saturday night, I had entered in my journal I was not going to apply for this. I maintained now was not the time for me, even though I felt a tug to get right in my head, because I know my issues are not due to lack of knowledge, but they are due to my subconscious mind sabotaging my efforts. It does this for a reason, and I&#8217;m looking forward to reprogramming it for more desirable outcomes.<\/p>\n<p>I returned from out of town and had time to listen to the rebroadcast of the Q&amp;A session. While I was listening to that, I became very comfortable with the idea of submitting my Pay-It-Forward Scholarship application. I realized the things that concerned me about Mark J&#8217;s conversation were simply his journey. His experiences. While I believe he&#8217;s had some background experiences that were similar to my experiences, they are a different journey from mine. They are not incompatible with my journey and may provide some common ground.<\/p>\n<p>I also realized as I listened to another launch from another group I participate in that some similar language was being used, and I reminded myself the Hero&#8217;s Journey has an unlimited number of paths, and many, if not all of us, are each on our unique path. Sometimes, the language of that journey overlaps.<\/p>\n<p>I&#8217;ve had a very blessed life. I&#8217;ve learned to be happy in recent years, but I am not satisfied. This is a very personal journey, and it&#8217;s likely to be one of the hardest &#8212; and quite possibly, one of the easiest &#8212; things I&#8217;ve ever done. When I am successful, I believe it will be worth it.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I&#8217;m not sure what to make of this, but my name is on the list. I have mixed emotions.
