If you have never heard of Oprah Winfrey and her love of vision boards, then I suspect you’ve been living under a rock for the last 30 years.  Oprah is an incredibly successful businesswoman and celebrity, and one thing that she used to talk about a lot was using a vision board to help to manifest success. Lately, I’ve been wanting to focus more on my goals so I filled out a goals sheet (grab your 90 day goals sheet if you haven’t already). Then, over the weekend,  I made a vision board. I create a vision board every season of change in my life, or when I’m wanting to…

I don’t know about you, but I’m really good at setting New Year’s resolutions and even better at forgetting about them come February. After reading on focusing on 1 word, you know that instead of making a huge list of resolutions I started to select 1 over-arching word for the year that will encompass all of my goals. But even when you simplify your list to 1 word, it can be hard to stick to your goals for the year. It’s GREAT to set to goals each year! With our intentions set high, let’s make sure that we can keep them. Here is the best way to use the SMART…

I used to make a long list of resolutions. Then around February, I would have abandoned my resolutions and have fallen back into my old habits. But, about 5 years ago, I stumbled across an article that told me to focus on one word for the year instead. I found that keeping my focus on one word for the year helped me ACTUALLY accomplish what I wanted to. Especially since I could give up my daunting to do list that I had renamed my “resolutions”. Now that I’ve been choosing a word for a few years, it’s been exciting to see how my life has changed. It’s never too early–or…

I’ve been thinking a lot about gratitude lately–coming up to November, how cliche, I know. I just finished The Secret by Rhonda Byrne which talks about being grateful for the things you have now and expectant of the blessings that are to come. If you’re interested in using the ideas in The Secret, read my article about how to get exactly what you want. I helped out at the food pantry this week and my gratitude list hit home. There are so many things that make you rich, right now. As a society, we like to complain about being poor, especially in our twenties. We joke that we’re broke college…

If you read my article about escaping the prison of perfectionism, you know that I’m a perfectionist. Maybe it has to do with being a Virgo, or having an INTJ personality, or just being a human with an entrepreneur spirit. No matter what the cause, the result can be paralyzing to my dreams if I don’t overcome perfectionism. For us dreamers, we need to take a hold on our perfectionism to get things done. We already know the 5 things about being a dreamer with a day job. Below is the ultimate guide to overcome perfectionism and start living your dreams. Don’t wait until things are perfect before you start…

I am a HUGE prisoner of perfection–if I didn’t have a 3 letter middle name, it might be perfectionist. But perfectionism isn’t going to help me achieve my goals. If anything, it’s going to put them off FARTHER in the future. Do you ever feel like this? You want things to be perfect before you presenting anything to the world. You’re afraid to showcase something people are going to disapprove of or judge or have something negative to say about. We get consumed with our perfectionism because following through with our project makes us very vulnerable. It’s even be harder with all of our social media! But we need to…

Sometimes it can be easier to procrastinate on your dreams, rather than face your fears. Lately, I’ve been trying to face my fears and break the cycle to officially start moving towards my dreams. But there are days I want to crawl back into my comfort zone and go back to procrastinating. Do you ever feel like this? There may be something you want more than ANYTHING, but fear or self-doubt starts to derail your enthusiasm. However, we don’t want to derail our enthusiasm. We WANT to face our fears and start making changes to live our dreams. Here are four steps and a goal sheet to help you face…

When you want to become a girlboss, you have to immerse yourself in the habits of other successful people. Which is what this week’s guest blogger wants to share with us. Emma, with Invaluable, has a list of 12 creative people who overcame great failure in order to become successful. Here she is to tell you more below! 12 Creatives Who Overcame Great Failure to Succeed: If you google the definition of failure, you’ll find “lack of success” or “the omission of expected or required action” at the top of the Search Engine Results Page (SERP).
