My postcards are in the mail!

Yes - my postcards are in the mail!  I'm so excited to be participating in the Liberate Your Art - Postcard Swap!

I will spare you the details, but let me just say that this almost turned into another one of those stories where I talk about wanting to do something...but don't actually get around to doing it.

But not this time.  I pushed through.

These days I am trying to make a conscious effort to flip the words around, turn them on their head, and write a different story.  A story with follow through.  A story that ends in completion.  A story that feels good.

And I kind of love this story of sending your love out into the world and seeing what returns.  Thanks to Kat Sloma from The KatEye View.  I hear there are about 250 people in this swap - that's a lot of organizing!

So tell me about you.  What have you been talking about doing lately?  What's stopping you from doing it?  Perhaps now is the perfect time...

A lesson on following through

So the other day I was talking about doing things.  

And following through on things.  

Well, wouldn't you know...it paid off for me!  

It may seem like a simple thing to some, but I can't tell you how long I have thought about contributing my photos to various Flickr pools...like Shutter Sisters & Kim Klassen's Inspiration Studio.  But actually doing it?  Well, I could speak for hours about that... 

But I am feeling the shift.  My momentum is building.  I am slowly starting to cross over from the thinking to the doing.  

Today one of my photos was featured on Inspiration Studio!  Check it out here.  I am over the moon!  Thanks Lori!

Production...not perfection

I've been noticing something lately.  

I've been noticing that production seems to work well for people.  

Not perfection.  

Production.  

As in doing things.  Making things.  Following through on things.  

What an interesting concept.
