It’s My 11-Year Quitiversary!!

OMG! Eleven years ago today, I quit my full-time corporate day job to be a full-time writer and author instead!!!

And I have to say, this is the first year in 11 years where I truly feel like I’ve “made it.” Like I’ve done what I set out to do all those years ago when I left my job all bright-eyed and optimistic about what the future held for me.

It took me a really, really long time to finally fully give myself permission to do what I wanted to do and be who I wanted to be. (It def doesn’t have to take that long but I wouldn’t change my journey for all of the ups and downs and changing my mind and trying new things all got me where I am right now).

I’m the happiest and most fulfilled in my life and career and business than I’ve ever been and it’s only getting better and better.

Making Peace With What Is

I finally made peace with paying taxes.

This was something that was SO hard for me over the last decade of being a full-time entrepreneur. I just couldn’t wrap my head around it or why I had to give up so much of my hard-earned income. ⁣
⁣
When I had a day job it was no big deal. The taxes were taken out automatically so there was nothing I could do and I just got used to however much money I ended up with. ⁣
⁣
But as an entrepreneur, I was the one responsible for setting aside the taxes from all of the money I made. ⁣
⁣
Except I never did it 😬⁣

The Thing vs. The Now Thing

There is this nuance of manifestation that I call the Thing vs. the Now Thing.

What I mean by that is… when you’re manifesting, you have two things going on: the thing you want that you know you will one day have but it isn’t something you feel ready for/ready to have yet/ready to manifest yet … it’s part of the vision, and the bigger picture but it’s a future thing.

That’s the Thing.

A Little Inspo For You Big Dreamers

I cried through Ke Huy Quan’s entire Best Supporting Actor speech at the Oscar’s last night. The truth is, I’m a sucker for dreamers–the ones who see a vision and who believe in it enough to move toward it, sometimes for decades, until it shows up in their real life.

The ones who know they’re meant for more than the average life and refuse to settle. The ones who want to not only make a living doing what they love but also make an impact.

Those dreamers inspire me, they motivate me, they help me to believe more in my dreams and in myself. And they remind me that even against all odds, everything is possible when you believe.

Ke Huy Quan is one of those dreamers. And last night in his speech, I saw a little bit of myself in him.
