I started this blog because I am hoping to inspire someone. I feel like my purpose here is help women realize their full potential. I get scared and nervous with each new project I start because it always seems like it's something I've never done before. But I always say if I can just rip it apart then I will be forced to put it back together. So that's the start. And it's super exciting! To rip down a wall or pull out water damaged insulation or 2 x 4's. It's so empowering!
Then stage 2 hits....and I feel like man, I'm never going to be able to figure this out. And I make mistakes. This blog and my work is not about perfection. If I wanted perfection in everything I would have just picked one thing and perfected it over the years. I am not about perfection. I am about doing something to the best of MY abilities and making sure it is safe and structurally sound. So I muddle through this stage, doing research on google and youtube. And at some point I feel like it's finally coming together.
Enter stage 3. The nervousness is over. I get into a groove and I can see the end. I feel great about the work I've done but more importantly, with the feedback I get, I feel like I have inspired someone. It might be for someone to get out and exercise a little by walking. Or it might be a project around the house that you didn't think you could accomplish but are starting. Because that's where the magic begins. With the first initial effort. I appreciate you reading this and I hope I have inspired you to think bigger today. Do not settle for less. Go out and make a difference. Life is so very short!
