Are You Ready to Make 2022 Your Year?!!

We've all repeated the phrase, "I'll wait until the time is right"...but guess what?! The right time is now!!

For a variety of reasons, many of us have been leading our adult lives in robotic and "safe" ways following a prescribed formula for "success" - job title, big house, marriage, kids, etc. This is good and great as long as we are still fanning our inner light and passions. Take a moment to reflect...do you have something you are passionate about? That makes you feel alive? That is something just for YOU?

For myself, unknowingly, I had let my creativity and inner spark fade over the years. I quit looking inward and focused on checking the boxes of a successful, industrial life.

Luckily, as my "About" page shares, I had an awakening a few years ago and my inner spark and potential have been re-awakened. This year, I've challenged myself to step outside of my comfort zone and start taking small steps toward some big goals I have for myself. Hence, this website/blog. I'm going to start with posting once weekly (minimum) and see where it goes from there!

"Nothing happens until you move. Start now. Don't wait until you are "qualified" enough."

~Robin Sharma [Everyday Hero Manifesto]

Do you have something that you've quietly been wanting to do? Have you been holding back? If so, why? What is your hesitation? Is it fear of failure or judgment? Thoughts that you aren't "qualified" enough?

If so, I dare you to take a leap and JUST DO IT. Sure, not everyone is going to dig what you are doing, but do you love everything that everyone else does in this world? We aren't meant to be for everyone, but there is an audience for all of us - people whom we will connect with, who are passions will resonate with and inspire.

Are You On Board?

If what I've just shared has reverberated something inside of you, then there's your answer.

I challenge you to take some time this week to think about what it is inside of you that you love and set a small goal to get started. Don't waste another minute!
