Finally!!

I found my creative (marketing) stride again this morning! I've been incredibly stressed out lately as I've struggled with getting my brain retuned and realigned with all that needs to be done at work. Coming up with creative ideas and setting them in motion tends to come so easily for me... so the past two months or so have been horrible.

Alas, not only did I come up with one good idea on the drive in... I came up with SEVEN. Not kidding. It's amazing. I feel really confident today now that I have some exciting things brewing up in my noggin. I'm going to go ahead and thank Mother Nature & this awesome rainy morning for my creative juices. I love it. Seriously.

I hope everyone's Monday is going as swimmingly as my own!

Path toward Greatness

Do you ever feel like you're meant to do something great... but whatever that 'something great' is, you're just not doing it? I'm back in that zone again. (This would be the second time in my life.) The first time I felt this way, I was trying to decide between law school and business school. Either decision meant I was out of my rut and onto what I could (at the time) only consider greatness. I had this preconceived notion that regardless of the school path I chose, I was headed toward 'it.' I'd never have another care in the world. HA! Cute, right?

Alas, fast forward 4+ years and here I am again. Except this time, I'm more intelligent, more mature, more grounded and less likely to get it wrong. (I am all of these things now, right?) Combine this with my insatiable desire to be creative and what we have here is a lethal combination of anxiety and inability to concentrate at work each day. And to be quite honest, it's getting annoying.

Fortunately, I've put together a master plan to satisfy my lack of 'greatness' or whatever the heck it is. I'm excited to jump in head first. My inability to pull the trigger, be damned. Who's to say now's the right time? Who's to say it'll EVER be the right time? I believe the world is full of people who walk around everyday thinking, "What if...." to themselves because they, too, never pulled the trigger. It's sad, if you think about it. There are so few people out there who truly feel fulfilled and HAPPY with their lives. I plan on being one of those few.

Debate: Settled.

I find it mildly amusing that after a month of deliberation with myself over the pros and cons of setting up this blog, I spend 3 hours getting the blog all set up and then bam - not a single creative juice left in my tired noggin for actual 'blogging.' Go figure.

Alas, I'll have to try again tomorrow... until then, you now know where to find me. Prepare to have your world rocked.

PS: If you know how to get a picture header up on this thing, please let me know. I fully intend on scaring you with a big ol' mugshot each and every time you visit.
