Sparkle and Shine!
Hello there Gentle Reader,
Linda
January 11 and so far no snowflakes. Oh we've had a dusting or two in the city but nothing really wintery - yet! I'm ready though. I received a fabulous coat from my Love that will keep me toasty. Which reminds me, who wants cinnamon toast?! Yes, it IS all about food with me!
So far this year we've discussed getting out our fabulous journals and glitter pens. Speaking of which, you can find both on www.etsy.com where you are supporting artists and getting one-of-a-kind goodness.
The key to achieving your goals - aka REACHING YOUR DREAMS - is to make the process fun. Remember when you were a kid and got that huge box of Crayola's for your birthday? You couldn't wait to draw and colour every single wish you ever had. Well writing down your ideas should be just as enjoyable. Maybe even more so since we now live in a world where we are overwhelmed by the media - sights, sounds, and not always happy-ending stories fill each day and night. I'm telling you - a crisp bright journal and a sparkly pen can go a long way in the cheer factor. Trust me.
You should take your journal and pens with you everywhere too. Even those few minutes when you're waiting for the office coffee machine to finish brewing your first cup, you can capture a few ideas. Remember, no idea is too big or too small. Plus having creativity around can inspire you with other goals and plans. It's all good.
Today I want you to get used to taking your pen and journal out and about. The waiting room in the doctors' office or perhaps in a coffee shop for 10 minutes at lunch. These are going to be your tools of the trade! Re-reading your words can raise your spirits and let you know that it is POSSIBLE to achieve all what makes you happy in life.
Until next time, keep dreaming!
Linda
I wholeheartedly agree. I take a Moleskin and a little pot of coloured markers wherever I go. My journal is very colourful and happy-making! xoxo
