Incentive and Spring Forward

I have been given an incentive to write more and make no more excuses. My husband just bought me a new laptop to replace my old netbook which was super slow. It was a total surprise purchase today. I had to walk around Best Buy for a few minutes to think it over because this means I have to be serious about working on my passion. This is game time. It was supposed to be game time a few years ago when I asked for the netbook but alas, life got a little hectic. I need to build on my passion which means I have to spend time on what I love doing, incentive or not. I can make it happen. It needs to happen to fuel my soul.

So, here I am in the darkness of our bedroom and with no glasses on, maneuvering and clicking in the dark to write my first with this brand-new laptop. Sleep eludes me right now so either I should blame it on my mind that is whirling with endless possibilities or on the time change today. Either way, tomorrow is another long day but I will not let it cast a shadow on my happiness.

As I am writing this, the time change slogan “Spring Forward” comes to mind. It is very fitting to what I am doing right now. I need to dream dreams that are bigger than me. I need to believe that the impossible can happen so I need to spring forward and seize the countless opportunities that will be coming my way. Hope springs eternal and Carpe Diem!

Join me on my journey and together let us move forward with our goals, with our dreams, and with a well of hope that never runs dry. You are probably in the same situation as I am – a working mom and a wife with a calendar full of activities for a growing family or maybe not. However, just like me you need a push to define yourself again. I hope to inspire you to take one step at a time with me. I do not know where this will lead us but I am excited. This is my incentive to spring forward – the adventure of what on earth I am here for. I am hopeful and anxious but not scared or afraid. Let us traverse this life together.

Yours truly,

Vian
