Have you ever dreamed about doing something for so long you know it is what you are meant to do on this earth. But people have filled you mind with doubt by looking you in the eye and saying "No, you can't do that and you're crazy if you do!" Well, the next time you hear that, I want you to look them straight in the eye and say "Yes, I can and just watch me!" All you have to do after that is believe in yourself. You can do great things if only you believe in yourself. Lately, I have had doubts about the last few post. I would say they weren't good enough or thinking about what other people would think about it. But now, I say "I can and I will!" Who cares about what other people think or say. I used to be the shy, quiet girl who kept to myself. I loved to write. I wrote poems, little things like this, and journal entries. The only thing that was holding me back from sharing my thoughts with the world was me. I didn't think anyone would care about what I had to say. One day I got tired of thinking I was no good at writing. So, what did I do? I started this blog. I had no idea what would happen or what I would write about. I knew in my heart this is what I am meant to do. I feel this is the gift God gave me. This and cake decorating. I love to decorate cakes. I know people won't like what I have to say but will it bother me? No, not one bit.
Today is Thursday. Which means tomorrow is Friday. YAY! Today is also the very first Think Positive Thursday. I chose today for some positivity because we all need that little pick me up. Thursday is the day we get to and sometimes it just seems to drag on forever. Making it feel like Friday will never get here. This week we have had many first; Inspirational Tuesdays, Wine Down Wednesday and Think Positive Thursday. Today I want to bring up all those times we have been told we can't do something or we won't. I'm pretty sure we have all heard it at some point or another. Well, today you CAN and you Will! Have you ever dreamed about doing something for so long you know it is what you are meant to do on this earth. But people have filled you mind with doubt by looking you in the eye and saying "No, you can't do that and you're crazy if you do!" Well, the next time you hear that, I want you to look them straight in the eye and say "Yes, I can and just watch me!" All you have to do after that is believe in yourself.

I know people won't like what I have to say but will it bother me? No, not one bit. So I want you to no longer say I can't or I won't. And if anyone tells you that, don't let it sink in. From now on think I CAN and I Will!

I completely agree - when it comes to the changes & challenges you take on in life, the only opinion that matters is your own! I decided to start a blog for the same reasons you did, and it's been amazing so far :D
