What would you do, if you couldn't fail?

Like most writers, I find that I am fairly introspective. I spend time thinking about who I am, what made me this way, and where I'm heading. I have learned that we need to spend time thinking about our dreams, and finding ways to make them a reality. If you find yourself not pursuing your dreams, I encourage you to try working your way through "The Artist's Way" by Julia Cameron. It is a revealing journey. It taught me that I can make my dreams a reality, and I learned a lot about myself in the process.

One thought I have pondered recently is this - What three things would I do if I knew I could not fail?  1) I would quit my job and I would spend more time writing. 2) I would open a scrapbook store (my favorite store is Remember This in Mexico, Missouri). 3) I would train and show my Miniature Schnauzers in agility classes.

I am interested in hearing YOUR three things. Email me or post a comment and tell me your three things. I'll discuss your responses in a future post.

So, what next? You've decided what three things you would do. Take a moment to consider these things. What can you do to incorporate these things into the coming week? You have 7 days, and 24 hours in each day. Surely you can devote one or two hours to one of these things. For instance, I plan to spend an hour today writing. Sure, I need to bless my house (for those of you who know Flylady, you know exactly what I'm talking about).  And laundry needs to be done. And I need . . . well, you know how it goes. But I can spare one hour to pursue my dream.

Plan your week. Make time for your dreams. They deserve your time and attention.

    1) I would quit my job and devote 100% of my career time to building my own business;

    2) I would raise dogs - German Sheperds and Miniature Dacschaunds;

    3) I would take that dream trip to Egypt and tour the pyramids.
