Starting Today

Deep Sign...today I decided while waiting for a friend to send me her resume to start my blog.  Not sure what that means really but hey I did it.  I "planned" to do a lot of research and an informational interview with a friend and awesome woman in the purpose pursuit world, Jen Price-Davis (check out her blog at http://jenpricedavis.com/) but I never "made" time to do it.  So today I decided to start...which is the antithesis to my personality type.  I am a planner...I like my day/life/universe planned in order to anticipate all and not be caught off guard.  I know...you should have laughed there or at least chuckled.  I received a quote from a friend..."I had poured years into making my plan successful only to discover that God resources and empowers His plan alone" (Girlfriends in God Daily Devotional - November 22).  Why was I so afraid to just start...well I wanted to make sure my words were "important" and really gave people the purposeful "push" or spiritual nudge I intended.  Honestly I didn't have faith that my "product" was worth anyone reading about or seeking out (overcame this with advice a good nugget I got from reading Jen's blog).  Starting today I decided who cares...take a risk...put yourself out there...listen to the spiritual nudge in you to put yourself out there even though everything in you wants to delete this and back away from the computer.

Here is goes...

  1. Super cool :) I can't wait to see what happens next! Just by sharing your thoughts about your words being important, you've made a difference. We all feel that way! Keep going :)

  2. Glad that you listened to the 'nudge' and took the proverbial plunge, so to speak. Excited about the possibilities!
