Make Your Wishes Come True

Tuesday, January 4th, 2011

What do you wish for in the year ahead?

With all this reflection of the past year, what are some things you would like to do, see or be in the new year ahead?

Here are a few questions you might consider:

  • I want to make more time for………
  • I want to learn more about…….
  • I want to take care of myself by….
  • I want to practice being more in the moment so I can  ….
  • How can I create more best days and moments this year?

Of course, wishing is only the first step but a very important one.  Taking action on those wishes will make them come true.

You may also enjoy reading my article New Year, New Perspective.

As for me, I am already structuring things so that I can have more time to create, make things, and share them so that I can inspire others to enjoy their creativity.  I plan to blur the lines more between working and playing.

What do you wish for?

Sometimes it is hard to be clear or stay focused on what you want.

One thing that really helped me and some of my clients last year was using a weekly reminder to set the intention for the coming week and to review the previous week with a few simple but powerful questions.

It helped us focus on the positive, gain insights on what was working and how to make little tweaks on things to make them better.

I’m setting up a service to offer you the same benefits.  I’ll let you know when it’s ready to go.  I think it will be a great way to help you keep focused on making your wishes come true.

Inspiring Quote of the Month

Tuesday, October 26th, 2010

“It’s like driving a car at night. You never see further than your headlights, but you can make the whole trip that way.” – E.L Doctorow

So often it is easy to get caught up in the fact that you aren’t sure how you will accomplish what you want.  That can be enough to stop you from even trying.

What we forget is that no one really knows exactly how something is going to turn out.

This quote is a great reminder that you need to just start going in the direction you want.  You don’t need to see the whole way ahead before you can reach your destination or maybe even a better one.

Four Minutes of Inspiration

Wednesday, July 14th, 2010

I don’t know about you, but I can never get too much inspiration.

I think we all need to have our dreams and aspirations reaffirmed because it can be way too easy to come up with reasons that lead you away.

You are too busy.
You don’t know enough.
You can’t compete with what is already out there.
Who are you to think you can do it.
Oh, it’s just a silly idea.

The harder road is to keep going. Keep plugging away, even when you aren’t sure where it’s going. Even when you don’t know what you are doing.

Because your heart tugs at you to be yourself, to do things your own way. You would think that is easy but it’s not.

We are all so conditioned to compare ourselves and to think we aren’t enough.

I found this video on U-tube through Kelly Rae Roberts, a talented mixed media artist.

Kelly Corrigan, best selling author of Lift and The Middle Place has these inspiring words for all of us. Take 4 minutes to be inspired today.
