I Can Reach Higher

As promised, here is my first piece on canvas. It makes me feel good. I hope it does the same for you.

Work in Progress

Good day everyone!

I have been Missing in Action for quite some time.  I've been brainstorming on some projects.  Out of that came the idea to publish a couple of zines.  Once I'm done, I'll give you a sneak peek.

P.S. I was suppose to upload some images of works done on the recently purchased canvases. I've only done one but I promise to upload later today.

The Rain is Here Again

First of all, I can't believe August is almost over.  I haven't blogged much at all ths month.  I have been reading though.  But back to the rain. It's a pleasant surprise.  I guess I'll go into my creative realm and do something fancy.

Making a List

I am a person that constantly makes lists: grocery lists, to-do lists, clothing and electronics wishlists, and many more.  But only once in a while do I create a list of my goals and intended outcomes.  I may create such a list once or twice a year.  I think I need to make a habit of writing my Goal List more often.  Otherwise, I may lose track of what I desire and I could stop myself from being accountable.  I could easily come up with excuses as to why I didn't submit to a CFE, why I didn't sign up for a workshop, or why I didn't finish a project.  "Oh, I forgot I was supposed to do that." "I had so many other things to do that that one goal just never crossed my mind." And more Blah blah blah excuses and notions. 

If I want to get out of my rut and cycle of bad situations, then I need to hold myself accountable.  I need to keep a clear view of my goals and the life I want.  This view needs to be with me at all times and not just once in a while when I open my journal.  So, for now, I'm off to writing my Goal List.

Is What’s In Your “Competence Rulebook” Holding You Back?

I was drawn to this article by Valerie Young of Changing Course. It is what I needed to learn about myself.
