Good morning!

I am so tired this morning! I feel a little like I am just spinning my wheels and not really getting very far. Actually, now that I’ve said that out loud, that may not be so very true. I am almost out of debt, I can feel myself getting physically fitter little by little every day – even though I am not losing weight consistently, I have less than a month to go before I get to go to Brave Girls’ Camp, something I have been dreaming about for the past few years! So, maybe I should start over!!

Good morning!

Life is good! I could still afford to go to bed a little earlier tonight! 🙂

I am taking a new Brave Girls’ class called The Walk. I am currently busy in the middle of doing week one’s homework, and watching week two’s lessons!! It is a little overwhelming, but taking every portion one step at a time has really seemed to help! I have just got to work on staying focused. With so many other things going on, and so many other responsibilities calling on my time, it has been a little tricky to manage, but I am a firm believer that you get to decide what you spend your time and focus on! Right now, for me, that focus is about taking time to put myself at the top of my to-do list, and figure out who, what, where, and how I want to be. It is all good stuff! 🙂

It has been nice spending time in the art studio doing my class homework, but I am really wanting to carve out some time, somewhere, to get back to my own arting! I haven’t made a piece in a while, and I can feel my inner Chrissie started to fidget, as if she is just on the verge of throwing a hissy fit because she hasn’t taken any stress free, non-thinking time to play! I will have to make sure that I make that a priority!

You may have noticed a little bit, that I am struggling with my blogging. I am over thinking it.

What will people like?

What do they want to read?

What will draw readers?

etc. etc.

I’ve decided to knock all of that craziness off, and just use Beautiful Creatives as an outlet for my voice. Plain and simple. No agenda. An online journal of my journey to get from where I am to where I want to be. Day by day. If I end up being the only reader of my words, then that is ok. I have done my best. I am constantly learning, and I know that there is always room for improvement, but the only person that I should be competing with is myself.

Is today’s Christina doing better than yesterday’s Christina?

Even if the answer is “Yes” by only a hair, then I am going to count that as a success!

If you do happen to stumble upon my blog, and you like what you see, I would be so honored to have you follow my, and share your comments! I think we could ALL use a few more cheerleaders in this life! 😉

Anyway, I am off to go get ready for my day job! I have a meeting first thing this morning, and I need to make sure my freshly washed gym clothes make it back into my gym bag so that I am ready to work out at lunch today! That has been a great addition to my schedule within the past two weeks, but since time is running short, this morning, I will have to tell you about that another day!

Here is to an AUTHENTIC VOICE kind of morning!

If you want to have a different life, you have to live differently!!
