Embracing Excitement for…Myself
Today, I am bubbling with excitement because as of yesterday my first order for Write ‘N Wear has been packaged and is ready to be sent off into the world! Let me tell you, this feeling burning within me is indescribable. I am filled with gratitude and a sense of accomplishment that I have never experienced before.
As I reflect on my journey thus far, I’ve realized that embracing excitement has always been a difficult thing to balance. My own personal growth, up until now, has never included acceptance or balance of excitement. Publishing this website and delving into a social media presence has pushed me to step out of my comfort zone, take risks, and pursue my passions with unwavering determination. This newfound sense of purpose has transformed my perspective on life and has allowed me to see the world through a lens of endless possibilities.
As someone who loves making jewelry, this moment is a dream come true. I cannot wait for more orders to flood in. I am not being self-absorbed; I am simply speaking it into the universe, manifesting the success that I know is coming my way.
A Newfound Confidence
I must admit, I haven’t always had confidence in myself. In fact, I used to be the king of doom and gloom, always expecting the worst. But now, with my website up and running and my partner and I moving into our first place together, something has shifted within me. I have this newfound fire, this burning desire to chase after my passions wholeheartedly.
Yes, I want to make jewelry. I want to create beautiful pieces that bring joy to people’s lives. But that’s not all. I want to take photos and sell them, capturing moments that have caught my eye and share them with the world. I want to block print apparel, infusing my carvings into wearable art. I want to write and act, using my creativity to tell stories that inspire and entertain. I want things, I want!
For the longest time, I was afraid to announce these desires to the world. What if I failed? What if people laughed at me? These thoughts held me back, keeping me from pursuing my dreams or even uttering them aloud. But you know what? I’ve come to realize that it’s okay to want things. It’s more than okay—it’s necessary. Everyone wants things. Everyone wants things and everyone’s eyes are on themselves, not you.
Embracing the Spring Within
Have you ever felt like spring in the middle of August? No? Perhaps it’s just a feeling within myself since I AM August, but I’ll proceed to share anyway. Spring symbolizes new beginnings, growth, and a sense of rejuvenation. And that’s exactly what I am experiencing. Sure, there are moments when self-doubt creeps in, but recently I’ve been feeling like spring. That’s the thing about progress, it’s never perfect, and often there’s a rewind segment you must venture through.
So, as I venture through this progress I shed my doubts and fears, embracing the possibilities that lie ahead, or at least I am trying to. I refuse to let this self-doubt hold me back any longer. I am ready to embrace the vibrant colors of life and chase after my dreams with all my might.
It’s okay to share the excitement that comes with pursuing our passions. It’s okay to take those risks and believe in ourselves. It’s okay to speak our desires into the universe and trust that the sky will respond kindly.. And most importantly, it’s okay to embrace the spring within, no matter what time of year it may be.
Thank you for joining me on this journey. Together, let’s celebrate the joy of chasing our dreams and creating a life that truly lights us up.
