Shine

When it's beautiful outside go out and enjoy it. I feel different when the sun is out and I'm basking in its warmth. Maybe it's because I'm a true California girl at the heart. I'm more motivated, happy, and inspired to pursue whatever goals I've set. The point I'm trying to make is to seize the moment. When you wake up and feel like today's gonna be a good day, say it out loud and act accordingly. Well I guess you have to start with knowing what atmosphere allows your creativity to thrive the most? When you find out take advantage. For me it's the sun! So today I'm outside, fabric shopping for the collection, meetings with vendors, and people watching. The perfect day!

Time for Change

Funny how people don't want to hear what you have to say when you are talking about something positive. Why is that? Who knows!!! What I have decided is that if the people I am talking to aren't interested in the things I'm talking about..........then, I'm out to find people who are. If you want a different response, how about a different audience. One day I woke up and just got it. I just had to remind myself.

Just Do It Already!

Are you a talker or a doer? I had to ask myself that question. I used to think that I was a do-er but somehow I had turned into just a talker and didn't even know it. I mean planning and talking out your goals is one thing, but when the time comes to make a move, that's what you have to do. Move, or guess what? You are just a talker. So I promised myself last year that in 2012 I was no longer going to work for Corporate America, instead I will work for myself doing what I love to do everyday......designing. At the time, I didn't really know how I was every going to be able to afford to leave this job and everything that it contributed to the family. But then my husband reminded me that the only thing that job was contributing to was stress. I mean why am I working so hard for someone else's success when I can do the same for my business. It is February 8th, and what am I doing now? I am happy to say that I am working full time for myself building my business and my brand and couldn't be happier. I challenge you to be a doer and not a talker. All you have to do is start.
