I am a heart thinker! Loud and proud. I never think about numbers, I don't bother myself with what if's or how's, and true to my astrological sign, I am impulsive and stubborn. Sometimes it gets me into trouble, but more often than not, the outcome is exactly where I want to be.
A few months ago I decided (another impulsive, rock me to my core in the middle of the night) that I was going to purge my crafting emporium and build a commercial kitchen and bake birthday/wedding cakes and cupcakes. I didn't think of how, the cost, the time, or anything. I just knew that I had to do it. When I had my launch on Sunday for family and friends, I knew it was what I was meant to do. I finally feel like I have a career, a purpose.
Today is my husbands last day at his job. He quit his job after eight years to follow his own heart. I am more proud of him today than I have ever been. As I sit here alone in this house, it is occurring to me more and more that today is the last day of steady income. Today we get to follow dreams and be more alive than we have ever been. The only choice I have today is to think about the good, the grand outcome. If I worry about the grocery money, the loan payments, or the hydro bill, that will get me nowhere. I have to think about the amazing thing we are doing. Getting to spend more time together will outweigh all of that. Yes, I am scared....terrified. But I can't let that get me down. Today I will focus on what I love to do, and know that that is enough and the money will follow.
So tomorrow morning when we wake up and have breakfast as a family on a Wednesday for the first time ever, I will focus on one moment at a time. One cake at a time, I will make it. I believe that all you need to be successful, is you. I won't let fear ride shotgun today.
