What Stops you?

What stops you from achieving what you want??
 
I sit here thinking, remembering and digging up the dreams I squash under everyday things. I think this is what stops me from continuing forward. The 'Daily Grind' as they call it.
 
It is easy to get lost, not in a bad way but, to maybe allow daily routine to fog the glass of vision.
It's there that's for sure, and when I think about where it is I want to be going I think '..ahhh there's that thing I've always wanted to do and achieve, and why haven't I..' etc, etc, etc.
 
One fact - things don't happen if you don't pursue them in one way or other!!
 
So, without being too cryptic- I promise to myself to continue on but with daily pause and vision towards this ultimate dream and goal of mine that I simply cannot leave this earth without DOING WELL. Not attempting, but doing it, achieving it and being a success at it.
 
One terrible man I knew gave me really the only advice he was able too and quite possibly the reason why our paths crossed, and that was.. 'No matter how small or big the job, if it's worth doing, it's worth doing properly'.
For this I thank him because it has stuck, and whilst I don't follow the everyday, in every moment, I am glad for the guidance when I need it. Reassuring me that I do know what the hell I'm doing so just do it already for it's not lack of ability!

Hello My Darling followers and readers...it's been a while1

Yes, Yes, I know I've been away...but lots has happened since i last spoke to you! i notice there are some lovely new followers who have sought me out and I thankyou ;)

So far my crafty year has been one of slow measure...excuse the pun! Whilst my cupboards are lovely and organised i miss the creative havoc in a way that helps you create things off the cuff...well me anyway! Once a crafter, always a crafter!! i miss Tuesday nights with the Melrose girls, you know who you are..so i shall be amping a revival in that department if you're game girls!! My crafty cobwebs need some spring cleaning as I have been focussing else-ware....Tupperware to be exact and omg!!! So you know how much we all love the Tupps, and how much we all yearn to have it everything, well they've just gotten better with time like that grogeous bottle of vino! So these past months have brought me to were i'm currently sitting, and that is a fancy new title of Unit Manager of one gorgeous team of gals... and more recently ...just been given a car!! wow you say, well me too!

This has all been happening since i last posted and pop, POP, POPP!! ...there expands my collection of plastic airtight goodness! That sounds almost obscene doesn't it! So now i've traded one obsession with another and i find myself at the doorway of life balance... the balance of achieving it you could say! Cos truly we do think we can do it all don't we and still wake up with a skip, hop and a jump in ours steps, don't we?? Invincible women that we are...unite!
