I'm back

It's taken me a full week.

A week of pondering, reading, writing, listening and reevaluating - myself, my priorities, my life.

And now I'm back! :)

I realized a lot this week. I was reminded of the things which are truly important to me. I reevaluated my goals and reset some of them as I realized the costs of some of my ambitions. I outlined (very specifically) my definition of success and surprisingly, I came to the realisation that I have already achieved parts of it!

I found my centre again this week.

I do have Anthony Robbins Unlimited Power audio tapes to thank for all of the above. I know there are a lot of critics out there who disagree with the work of Tony Robbins and the way he makes his money. I don't really have an opinion about any of that. The guy just inspires and motivates me to do more with my life and to me, that's a great thing.

So where am I at now?

I've set some pretty specific goals for the year ahead. One of them being to trial selling my wares online. I've decided to start with my customised handbound books. Prestine white pages hand stitched into sections, hand bound with scarlet red book fabric. Your name block printed in gold, emblazoned on the front. Amazing.

I'm going back to the bindery this Sunday and my aim is to create ten of these A5 books and put them up for sale. If you would like to order one in advance, please leave me a comment. I don't even know what kind of price I want to be charging for these puppies but make me an offer and we'll have a good old barter.

In other news, I finished the baby blue blanket! It's warm, soft and cuddly... Perfect for baby Rhys.

With the lace making journey, however, I have officially taken three steps back. There's just so much on my plate right now, lace making has not been a priority. I guess that's the good and bad thing about learning things at your own pace - there's no deadlines. Oh well, I will provide progress update posts as they happen.

Have a great Tuesday!
