Here are the honest facts… I am in the middle of a shit storm I call my life. Juggling so many projects, personal, professional and overall neat stuff that I am really passionate about. On top of that even with everything going on there are the daily grind stresses that seem to rear their head, finances, sick kids, house cleaning – yeah the ‘good stuff’.
But an epiphany hit me the other day. Here I was driving around town between deliveries and appointments and there was my head playing worry wart with all the things I have on my plate – when it ‘hit me’. I just dropped off a cookbook I DESIGNED to a local famous foodie I admire. The day before I met with an amazing publisher of a fabulous and popular western canada publication which has opened a door into a field I want to purse. AND here I am on the road calling the shots in my daily schedule!
No one is in charge of what I accomplish in a day… I AM! Now if an ah ha moment like that doesn’t just put a smile on your face? Nothing will.
Are you calling the shots in your life? If not – well get on it.
Thank you for this post – definitely something to remind myself of every now and then. I do what I do because I love it and that fuels the fire.
You are welcome Lindsay. Always good to do a glass half full check on life.
