You’ve been sacrificing parts of yourself for the last however long in the name of love, but chances are you’ve not been the beneficiary of that sacrifice. Decide now that it’s time for you to reap the benefits of the love you possess.  Ask yourself, what am I interested in? What do I love to do? This way you take love for a bit of a spin. Hold off on thinking of it only as something you have to offer to someone else, because in the absence of that someone else it’s going to feel terrible having love to offer, but no one to give it to. 

So, no more associating love with another person and therefore no longer associate it with a break-up or sitting around waiting for someone else to do (or not do) something to prove love’s existence or absence. For the next 90 days (at least) your love is exclusively for you. What does that mean? Where do you begin? Try some courses. If you’re old enough to remember when iPhones first came out, then you’ll probably remember Apple’s commercial for the App Store. The tagline was “there’s an app for that.” Well, courses are the new apps. Just about everywhere you turn there is some offering on some subject. Whether you want to learn a new hobby or embark on a new career, there’s a course for that.  Of the gazillion course platforms available, Skillshare and EdX are the best platforms for courses. Skillshare is better for the casual learner because lived experience and anecdotal information thrive on that platform. The instructors are people who do the thing they are teaching. They have skills they want to share, so yeah, hence the name. edX on the other hand is more of an academic approach to learning. The instructors are professors who have taught formal university level classes for years. There is usually some form of testing involved with these course and even an option to get a certificate. Another huge difference between the two platforms, Skillshare has costs associated with it, while edX courses are free.*
