Sunday Inspiration: The Future Beckons

Mark Twain once said, "Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things that you didn't do than by the ones you did do. So throw off the bowlines. Sail away from the safe harbour. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover."

As 2011 closes and 2012 opens, that is what I want to do - Throw off the bowlines, sail away from the safe harbor and catch the trade winds in my sails.  To all my friends - May you explore, dream and discover all things good!

Sunday Inspiration - Imagine

"At first people refuse to believe that a strange new thing can be done, then they begin to hope it can be done, then they see it can be done - Then it is done and all the world wonders why it was not done centuries ago."  Frances Hodgson Burnett

An Attempt at being Left-Brained

Having been challenged by the girls at Savvy Blogging, I have proceeded to set some goals.  Being the right-brained creative type, this has not come naturally.  As a matter of fact, my brain now hurts.  However, I love a new challenge, so here goes:

+

Goal #1:  Post once a week.  Might as well start with something simple.

+

Goal #2:  Start jotting down ideas for new posts so that I can constantly be on the lookout for beautiful and interesting ways to present the subject.

+

Goal #3:  Learn one new technical skill each week and pray my brain doesn't explode.

So, there we go.  My underlying goal is to write a blog that will be beautiful, enjoyable and useful - and through the process of posting, begin to connect  with other creative souls.  This is about as left-brained as I know how to be.
