Do you ever feel like you play too small? Ever get afraid to dream too big? Get freaked out when you go there? Yea, me too. The world is not organized in a way that overtly commends the creatives. The artists are adorably expressive (until it's not adorable). The makers are sweet. The micro-businesses are cute - just look at them. Unless you're a multi-million dollar corporation or a Grammy-winning singer, society doesn't easily praise you, but I feel the winds a-changing. It's time we step aside from our fear to dream as big as we can, and commit to making something awesome. Something beautiful. You have the ability to dream big because you have the ability to make it a reality. Remember that. Hold your big, bold vision. Hold it and live it. Sleep it and breathe it. Get to work. TO-DO FOR YOU: Be bold. Dream big. Do the thing. ALMANAC: It's time to begin the dive into your creative endeavor of the year. You've dreamed it up, you've shared your ideas with friends, you've convinced yourself that this thing is right for you. Start planning your steps. Make outlines and action plans. Begin making it real. |
