23-29. Venting Frustration.

Sara’s View of Life with Sara Troy, on air from July 18th

Can you sense my frustration and disappointment, and is it completely understandable? I have been nurturing this dream of creating a book for “Our Forgotten Children” for years, and it’s a noble cause. I have extended invitations to people I’ve interviewed, offering them a chance to participate for free and even promising that the proceeds will go to their charities. Yet, the silence from their end is disheartening. It’s natural to question their lack of response. Are they not interested in the book, the work involved, or is it something to do with me? These doubts can indeed shake one’s confidence and make one question the viability of the dream. I’ve got a publisher lined up, but I need the authors to produce the content. They had expressed interest initially, but now their silence is deafening.

Yes, I’m venting. Yes, I’m confused. And yes, I’m disappointed. But does this mean the end of the book? Or is it just another detour on this journey? Sometimes, it’s necessary to take a step back, reassess the situation, redirect our efforts, or even re-invite potential participants. It’s not easy, but it’s part of the process.

Indeed, we all encounter roadblocks in various aspects of our lives, be it work or daily routines. These challenges often prompt us to question our actions and decisions. Am I doing this right? Should I even be doing this at all? For me, the book is the right path, but I’m left wondering if I’ve invited the right people. Wearing all the hats can be overwhelming, especially when you’re passionate about the cause. This project is a fundraiser for organizations that serve our children, and while I can’t afford to pay anyone, I wish I could find someone who shares this passion and would love to embark on this journey with me. I have a publisher lined up, and to cover her costs, I’ll be organizing a fundraiser. It’s a lot to manage, but I believe in the cause and the impact this book can have.

So it leaves me with the option to invite different people to embark on this journey, both as the author and someone who wishes to help me by wearing a hat that is wobblily on my heard, yet fits them perfectly.

I will take a few days to ponder, and then, reach out to some new people working with children and see where it goes. Thats is what we have to do, right! pivot how ever frustrating it can be, go with the flow.
