Hello Everyone,
Today marks the beginning, day numero uno of my first ever blog post. Finally!!! Woohoo!!! Party Time!!! I am actually celebrating with helium balloons and am slightly worried that the Donald Duck voice may be permanent. All kidding aside, I am embarrassed to say that it has taken me over 340 days to Just Do It Already!
What the heck? Why??? How come you may ask? Oh, I’ll tell you… The thing that has held me back the most from taking action is Perfectionism! Yup, that’s right! I want everything to be perfect, just so, with the right logo, cool colours, the best theme, winning slogan and super looking FONTS. I have spend wayyyy too much time agonizing over serif, elegant, bold, extra bold, all caps, no caps, etc.
I originally birthed the idea of Lit With Joy! after a huge health scare last year. More details to come… Since this event, I felt a “calling” to share my stories, life lessons, dreams, ideas, inspirations & laughs with others. If I can in any way light you up with possibilities and fill your heart with joy in the process, then I will have accomplished what I am meant to do!
I have been thinking, and pondering, and talking (blah, blah) about this blog since FOR EVER. My 19 year old son said to me recently, “Mom, just write something! The rest will work itself out.” Very wise words indeed! So my first piece of advise on this journey of light is to release the need to be perfect, and JUST DO IT ALREADY!
Thank you for stopping by. May your path be Lit With Joy!
