If I have learned anything in the last few years, it is that we all have gifts to give to the world and if we are lucky enough to realize them, we have the opportunity to make them into our dreams. With that dream comes a path that will teach us amazing lessons along the way.
The person you were when you first realized your gift is not the same person you will be when you apply it to your dreams.
You will change.
Your path might too.
And as much change, lessons, amazing insights, and growth you go through, at the core you will be the same.
At your core, in your heart, and in the midst of your creative soul, you will be the same.
That passion and love you are sending out into the world has always been with you on some level. It may have started as just a tiny seedling of interest, inspiration, and hope that eventually developed some roots of importance and passion. Through storms of confusion and frustrating questions of “how” things would turn out, you have held true to your path, your calling, and your gift.
The path to creating the life of your dreams is yours and as you travel it you get to decipher what lines up with your vision and what does not. And every “mistake”, “mis-step”, and “failure” is really an opportunity to learn and grow.
So take the first step on your path with positive expectation and open arms for all that you are going to discover about yourself and the world around you, for nothing will provide a more amazing journey than you setting out to make your dreams become reality.
One step is all it takes to get you to the next. Why not start now?
