UPDATE | 2018 A Year of Excellence
Happy New Year!!!
It's no secret that I absolutely adore the New Year. A fresh start with time to reflect and kick start what needs to change and what needs to move forward. It is my cat nip. My elixir of choice. Every season that turns and every year that arrives brings new insights, new ideas and new ways of evolving. Another year of life to live to it's fullest.
For anyone who has checked in here from time to time, it is obvious that our layout for this website has changed. As each year changes so do we and this website has undergone another shift. We have shifted the focus to become a landing page, running portfolio of the work and projects I am doing, along with a current and continually updated CV. I will still be maintaining a bi-weekly blog post presence for those who want to continue following the blog format, and hope that these changes will be a better reflection of the work that I am doing today.
Thank-you to every person who is invested in the journey that I am on as a writer and creative, whom litter my inbox with encouragement, inspirational thoughts and walk with me through the highs and the lows. You are an incredible force in my life.
2017
Was a year of growth, discovery of my place in the creative world as it is now, and claiming that what I had to offer was of value and worth. That as a writer, I am worthy of being here on this earth. I discovered that with that journey of claiming what I have been called to do, a joy follows it.
I have experienced over the last year a peace and a joy that has surpasses my own understanding. The questions of "What the heck am I doing?", "is this worth it?" have been eclipsed by the joy of the work.
2018
for me is about pursuing that joy, what I can learn from the industry I have found a passion for and continuslouy hitting the desk, meetings and inspirations to pursue what has been given to me. It became so evident as the reflections began over the last few months that a new word was to be focused on this year:
Excellence
noun . The quality of being outstanding or extremely good.
an outstanding feature or quality
Excellence because it's not about perfection or a specific rating. Excellence surpasses a rating because it reaches for more than the 'right' delivery and goes straight to something unique. It reaches for what cannot be fully described or put in a box. It is, as it is.
Outstanding. Of itself, a high quality.
Focusing on excellence in my work, my choices and my lifestyle ideals are what is forefront in my mind as I journey in this next year!
May you be inspired by this New Year given to us and reach into your depths for whatever it is you are called to be and do.
