Life is all about taking chances, they say. But honestly, sometimes that’s easier said than done. I haven’t lived in the real world all that long but I can openly say taking risks scares the sh*t out of me. Now I’m not talking about like week old milk risks, I’m talking about quitting your job, changing careers, and moving to a new city types of risks. That scary life-changing stuff.

I was at a sort of stalemate in my life. For a while I lost sight of my goals and got caught up in comfortability. I was going through the motions of my everyday life and I did not like who I was becoming. That wasn’t me. I’m not the type of person to take the backseat. I had to do something about it. I started making a mental list of things I wanted to accomplish. I needed something to help me focus on my goals. I’d been talking about blogging for literally 5 years and frankly, I got tired of hearing myself say, “I should really start my own blog”. So I finally threw caution to the wind and did it! It’s been so exciting to create something of my very own; something that’s a reflection of who I am and want to be.

I’m happy to say that I finally feel refocused and now I’m more motivated than ever to make some serious changes.
