Dreams turned into Reality

I've been a bit quiet on the blogging front lately. This is largely due to the fact that I've been busy working away at my first e-book "Mojo for Mummas", which I am proud to announce was published through amazon.com late last week.

 I've been delivering "Mojo for Mumma's" Workshops to Mums in my local community and have developed a program around it that will go online. With the impending arrival of baby number 2 in June, I want to be sure people have a way to access what I've created whilst I am re-learning the ins and outs of having a newborn.

It's long been a dream of mine to write. As a child I loved writing stories and reading was a passion. Somewhere along the line, I lost sight of that dream; until late last year when I really reconnected with myself writing those 10 successive blog posts about my motherhood journey. Then I realised I had a story to share with the world. My story. My truth. One that no one else had experienced, but perhaps others would benefit from reading about and maybe save themselves some heartache.

Writing those posts reignited my passion for sharing a piece of me through the written word.  When I sat down to write my ebook, it just flowed. Everything I needed was there already within me. It was my story. Words flowed out of my brain and onto the pages in front of me. The writing process came easily and effortlessly, despite months of wondering what to write, how I should write and what others would think of my writing.

The lesson I learned from this experience, is that you are ready now. You do not need to wait to get "good enough". You do not need to invest money in bettering yourself. The learning comes from the doing. You can't prepare for a marathon by sitting on the couch reading books about preparing for a marathon.

One must take action. Daily. Deliberate. Action. One step in front of the other. Picking yourself up when you fall down. Choosing another path when the one you're on isn't getting you the outcome you like. Consistency. Having a circle of friends you can turn to on the days you don't think you're going to make it. Being responsible. Committed. Dedicated. Seeing the end result before it's arrived. But most of all ... ACTION will get you there.
