The new blog is live!!

I'm cutting it really close to my end of the month timeline, but I'm happy to report that my new blog is finally up! You can check it out here. Hope to see you there! =)

Off hiatus

umm....hello? Is anyone still there?
Well, for the 3 people that used to read my blog, I'm off hiatus! =) I can't believe my last post was back in May! Seriously, where does the time go? I'm not sure I can tell you where I've been, it's all a blur. Working? Traveling? That's all I can think of.
To tell you the truth, I'm being a wimp. For the past year, I've been talking and talking about starting my business and launching a new website, but I continue to find excuses so I can stall just a little bit longer. The reality is is that I'm discovering my fears and weaknesses. It's rare territory for me. I'm the type of person that tends to shy away from risk and I cringe at the thought of failing at something. I like to be good at everything I do...it's the reason I don't speak Spanish. I can understand it fluently and I even have the accent, but I know if I speak it, it won't be perfect.
Well, Internet, I am telling you right now, that I am going to go for it. I'm sailing away from the safe harbor and catching the trade winds in my sails, just as Mark Twain would have wanted it.

To show some faith I've even started my inspiration wall =)
I had the perfect space for it right next to my computer...

I went to Ikea and bought something that I think is supposed to be for curtains. I gotta be honest, I'm pretty darn impressed that I did it all by myself, I had to break out the toolbox and everything! I refused help from Mike just so I could say I did it by myself, haha. I guess after facing my fears, I'll have to start working on the pride thing.

It's not quite finished yet, but it's getting there.

I'm very happy to report that my new blog will be up by the end of the month!

Since I'm in the motivational mood, I'll end with the wise sayings of Kobi Yamada...

Life is here and it is now...either we meet it, we live it or we miss it. An unlived life is littered with "could haves," "should haves" and "if onlys." Each moment greets us full of possibility and leaves us hoping we are better for having met.
