Get in the Doing Business

We all have dreams, goals, and adventures on our bucket list. Many of us spend time blogging about them or searching and pinning them on Pinterest. Today I pondered how many of those things will any of us do, try, see, or visit in reality, and the truth is some of us will never see our Pinterest or dream boards come to fruition. I say, let's give it a go. Everything within in reason of course, deserves at least one attempt. I started with recipes and I must say, I was not disappointed and neither were the guys. Last week I made a skinny-chicken parm, and took the boys to the zoo. This week I will attempt one of my DIY projects and a dessert for a labor Day party we are attending this weekend. Obviously, I started small, but hey, you have to start somewhere.

Whatever it is you desire needs your focus, commitment, and attention. If you want to lose weight, get to the business of getting it done. Set a goal, cut your calories, eat healthier foods more often, drink lots of water, and workout for at least thirty minutes every day you can. If you want to redecorate, set a budget, save, choose a room, pick a paint color, buy some frames and art for your walls, a new rug, throw pillows, possibly a fireplace if you do not already have one, and maybe even some new furniture if it is in your budget. Whatever you do, get to the business of getting it done. We make too many excuses. We are easily let off the hook with the crutch of life's many constraints: little or no time, little or no money, distance, or whatever your excuse may be, it may always be there, but whether or not it will stop you is your call.


We spend a lot of time wishing, hoping, wanting, and praying without doing. Do your part. Whatever it is you have been wishing, wanting, hoping and praying for requires your action. Your moving forward brings your desire closer to you so get focused and get moving. Every day can not be a vacation, but there is nothing wrong with planning for one. No matter what it is, big or small, set your goal, do your research, gather information from your friends and family, and get to the business of seeing it done.
