What I forgot to add, to yesterday’s Why post, was this….
That tingly feeling.
You know…that feeling you get in your bones…deep within your heart…that you know you’re doing something good. Like your life is changing, and the tides are turning in your favor.
I’m equating it to the feelings I experienced when the hubbs and I finally got back together. Blogging is THAT good. For me at least.
I feel like things are happening, and what I’m getting, or WILL get, from all of this will be satisfaction. Satisfaction that I’m creating my own destiny…my own success story. My own “Make It Work,” story.
And the ones who’ll benefit from this all, besides myself….my family. My girls…they drive me to be my best, and they are the reason I’m even here writing on this blog. They are also my biggest cheerleaders…Annalise tells her friends that I’m awake early in the morning working on my blog! hehe! She doesn’t even know what a blog is!! Goodness! And the hubbs…he’s trying to recruit new followers for me at work!…Makes my heart skip a beat!…So see, I can’t fail!
I’ve always been one to follow my heart…It helped me land the hubbs hehe, and it will play out the same with this blog of mine. I honestly don’t know what will happen next…how Laid Off Mom will rise to fame, or what will become of this all…but you have my word…it’ll be Super Freggin Fantabulous!! Heck yea!!
I’ve already started thinking about the next step…you know…Do I open up shop? Do I start an Etsy store? Do I pen a book? It’s all up in the air…but I’m not trying to force it. I want this blog to evolve organically, and it has…and that’s what I want for my next “step.”. I’ve got my eyes on a few things…but I’m letting it all come to me. And when it all goes down, you’ll be the first ones I tell!!
Cheers to blogging, to following your heart, to creating a dream…
