Make Things Happen!



Life.  How do we make our lives what we want it to be?  I'm 53 now, but I remember always saying I didn't want to grow up. I meant stay young at heart because if you look at children, they fear nothing...perhaps because they have faith that they will be caught when they fall.   They all have that  "FEARLESS" characteristic.  They trust and fear nothing, and dive and attempt to do things we experienced older people do not. Wouldn't it be great if we all went through life like that, knowing someone will catch us if we fall?  But real life is not like that, or should I say adult life is nowhere near that.  I always tell others to always put your best foot forward and keep moving, no matter what life throws your way. Sometimes in life, we make decisions that will not create waves or adversely affect those we love. I think many people walk on eggshells instead of taking the path they truly want. We each only have one life to live.  So how do we LIVE it?

I noticed that I have complicated my life more than it needs to be.  I ask myself, what are you looking for?  Hmm. I'm not so sure. I dream a lot of a new home, where everything is white.  Go figure...Could it be a need to start fresh with new beginnings?  Could it be that I need to purge all the "baggage, junk and clutter" I've collected in my life?  Is it all the unfinished projects or memories that are making me feel stuck?  Lots to ponder, I'm sure, but I am trying to figure things out for myself and make things easier, rather than harder.  I also noticed that I seem to have split myself in more ways than one....not in the Schizophrenic sense, but in business.  There is such a thing as being good at many things, but being truly dynamic at one takes focus.  I think I'm going to work on this.

My friend Mahlon Arnett used to joke at my A.D.D., "comprehensive" website, and lack of white space.  He was so right!  I asked earlier last week how many screens everyone has open at one give point in time.  This is why I was asking.  Ok, sorry for my ongoing state of confusion lately.  I feel like I'm juggling more than I can handle making me feel a bit lost. I think we all feel a little lost from time to time.  Perhaps it's because of all the projects and desire to do more. I know it is not realistic to have a super long List of things to do and expect to get them all done.  My friend, Charlie Burgess once told me, "How do you eat an elephant?"  I said, "you don't!" lol.  She said, "one bite at a time."  I get it now!  I'm slowly making progress...one box, project, day at a time. :)   Bear with me.  The next few weeks will set me in the right direction.  I'll share upcoming changes and projects in my next post.  My goal for now is to make the next event, year, business, project, day something I can handle...more manageable.  Good idea, Cindy. (Yes, I do talk to myself at times. lol) 

How you might ask?  Through sheer determination, I'm going to review my current situation, strategize, put a plan in place and execute.  I'm currently working on two goals for the rest of the year, of which I have a buddy I meet with or communicate weekly to share progress.  This idea was inspired by my friend, Darlene Templeton.  I can do this!  I can make things happen!



Thanks for following me.  What can you do to make YOUR life easier?  Do you have unnecesary clutter?  Do you take on more than you can handle?  Do you give yourself "ME" time?

Please share your thoughts or concerns with me.  Till next time.  Make it a GREAT life and "BE HAPPY!"

Huge Hugs
