Have you got complacent in following your dreams? Do you feel as though there is never enough time to fulfill your dreams? About a year ago I was in this same place... I thought that I would never be able to accomplish all the great things that God had in store for my life. I felt very insecure about starting something new, in my middle age life. But I still felt compelled to do more....

After much prayer and meditation, God lead me to a few simple steps on getting started towards my dreams and desires:

1) Just do it! Start somewhere! To every idea, there is a starting point.

2) Clear your mind. Let go of negativity and regrets. Get free to dream...

3) Write down three things that you love and could do without pay.

4) Start researching your dream. Is it something that people really want?

5) Write out a Vision and Mission statement. What do you want to accomplish.

6) Sharpen your skill. Take a class at a College or check your local library.

7) Write out a system. How much time will you put in towards your dream.

It's time to make dreams come alive!

On October in the year of 2011, after coming home from a bible study, I went to lay down for bed, and realized that I couldn't move my neck. My husband, noticing something was wrong, jumped out of bed and said, what is wrong with you?" I immediately told him that I needed to go to the hospital, now." We quickly got dressed, being just three minutes away from the ER. He grab a wheel chair and rolled me into the waiting area. About forty five minutes later, after so much pain medication, barely awake. I heard the Doctor say, she has bleeding on the brain. The next thing I knew, I was waking up in a hospital two hours away from home." I had a stroke."

My entire stay in the hospital was two full weeks." I was physically fit, no blood pressure, and no heart condition. What am I trying to say? In a situation that is totally uncommon and out of our hands, we must be spiritually fit in: Spirit, Mind, and Body. We must always be prayed up for whatever may come our way.

I couldn't have went through what I went through, if I wasn't fit in my Spirit, Mind, and Body."

God healed my body." With no loss of limb usage, or speech. He renewed my mind, and gave me a new look on life. God didn't bring the stroke, but He sure was with me through it!

Where are you when it comes to your Spirit, Mind, and Body? How fit are you in these three areas? Are you fit enough to go through any hinderances that will try to block your success in your Spirit, Mind, and Body? Seek the Lord today on where you are right now."

Make the neccessary choices to change where you are. We all can be better than we are today!

Have you ever had a desire to do something that you really loved? Do you see it as something that you could do for the rest of your life? Then ask yourself a few questions:

A) When growing up I always wanted to....

B) Everytime I go to the store the first place I go to is....

C) If I knew I had one year to live I would do....

Okay! This should be a short way of finding out where your desire is."

I remember when I was growing up, I loved fashion! I would wear different color tennis shoes to school." My mother would always let me explore different fashion and designs. When I would get too out of hand, she would quickly tell me to tone it down."

As I search the internet, read tons of books and magazines, I found out that there is a high percentage of people seeking entrepreneurship." People are taking leaps to something more fulfilling, than just an everyday job!

What will you do today to start a fresh new beginning towards your new career?"
