Vision boards, the universe, and believing in yourself...

So, I have this idea. Well, truth be told, I've had this idea for a while now, but only recently put the wheels into motion. Three weeks, to be exact. The exciting thing is, that I am going to be pitching the idea to some of the folks that can make it happen this coming weekend! More on that later, though*.

I've never been one to formulate a "vision board". I've heard they're great, and can help you keep your eye on the prize. I admire those of you with the focus to create these little masterpieces...I frankly, just don't have the time. I also think my husband would tease me to no end for hanging one of them in our home. Anyhow, every day, I've been thinking about my idea, and how I can bring it forward, how I can make it happen. I guess I would classify it as an internal vision board. I ordered the initial supplies I needed (for which I am still waiting), and formulated a plan for when they arrived. A few days after that, I happened to read of an upcoming event where I would have that opportunity to pitch my idea to a panel! I'm not expecting anything to come of this, however, the experience in itself will be invaluable! This is the first step of what I would love to do for the rest of my professional life...kind of huge, right? I am brimming with excitement at the possibilities! Unfortunately, I can't divulge too much at this stage, but I will be sure to keep you posted.

What I really want to say, without sounding too colloquial, is stay true to your dreams...stay focused, do what you can to make them happen; the universe will work with you if it's meant to be (even if it takes 3, 4, 5, or 50 tries!).

*Later = much, much later

Love it! Can't wait to learn more about the idea - later, of course.
