Hey all & Happy Summer!
Had a fab day, decided what the hey!
Actually through Facebook, came across a cool link which led me to www.daniellelaporte.com There is a Credo she has about "making it happen."
So many of us are looking for our souls, our inner spirit, our God, The Secret, The Secret behind the Secret, The Way, The Power & The Path.
We KNOW who we are, or at least we used to. Think back to when you were little, what did you want, who were you?
God knows us. He made us, and created us, He knows our hearts.
What is my purpose? Well it's been a "soul-search" for me. A silly search. Buying too many books, materials, buying colored pens, notebooks, even stickers & cupcake & art supplies.
I know i am creative. So i made cupcakes today that were pretty, but hard like hockey pucks. LOL I went to the beach, wrote a paragraph & looked at my cake pops book.
I wanted to be a baker, floral artist, artist, writer, dancer, teacher, nurse when i was young. I wanted to be a fairy, angel or child of the forest.
But who are you really? Who are you today? I know i can sing. I like to dance. I love to write. I chat endlessly, and always have something spinning through my mind, and can't get the words out fast enough.
So my gift is self-expression. To write, blog, post (useful info). Then to write, blog, write a book on what i have learned. How i'm pursuing my passions. Who inspired me. How i'm transitioning. Why i'm waking up.
I upgraded my WordPress site Pink Lemons to www.pinklemons.net Now i want to play and make the site more fun & creative! It looks boring to me now.
I want to keep working on my book. Make it fun. Exciting. Passionate.
Danielle La Porte gave me the kick i need to sit down & get practical. What are my passions? What ignites me?
What can i do today/this week to do more of what i love/less of what i don't? (Made cupcakes, had coffee on the beach/wrote, looked at cake pops cookbook, practiced a few words/sentences in Spanish). Upgraded blog, then wrote a happy blog post. This week, looking into promoting myself/branding, etc.
Have fun with this! Who are you? For me i know i am a writer. Why don't i do it? Because it comes naturally. I don't walk down the street & expect people to say "Wow you breathe so well!" It is very hard for me to pat myself on the back & say "I"m a good writer", because it is just easy for me.
I have had a number of people over the past 5-7 years telling me i have a way with words. A gift, a talent, to use it. I have been very humble, like oh thanks, bashful smile.
I still struggle along in my career trying to get ahead, and not. So therefore, it is time to start pursuing my dream.
Expect more blog posts from me. I also plan to sign out the Writer's Way, and look into submitting articles, and finishing that dang book! WOOT!
