Just Keep Swimming

I started out to build a website for my photography business. I wanted one that enabled my clients to enter a pass code to view the images from their respective portrait shoots and also a page that highlighted my images of the night sky for purchase. I got sidetracked as only a person suffering from the most severe case of A.D.D. can do. I ended up with a blog. Now, where did that come from? I never intended to have a blog, it’s just that it was the first page that showed up. I could not figure out how to get what i wanted so i settled into writing instead. I’m not that good at writing either, but i can offer you a bit of encouragement in whatever your dreams may be. I am good at encouraging others to pursue their goals with drive and intent. You should never give up no matter what others say. Stay the course, if you will. You cannot get where you want to go if you don’t put one foot in front of the other. Every long journey begins with a single step. It says so right on the walls of my art studio, along with other phrases of encouragement. I didn’t coin them, but i do listen to them. Or, more truthfully , I try to listen to them. Everyone has demons they chase in the night. The “what if’s”. The “if only I would have made better choices”. All the doubtful thoughts rattling around in your brain are counter intuitive. Stuff them in a dark place and forget about them. They are thoughts that bring you down. Instead focus on the positive. Focus on what you have accomplished and be proud no matter how small it seems to you. Another person, whose life you may have touched without even knowing it, will see it as something huge. Something they will remember forever but you thought was nothing. I will just keep swimming, even if it’s against the tide. I don’t know how to do anything else. You do the same. Thanks for visiting.
