courage

The cover image on my 2015 personal journal.

I have blogged many times about how to have the courage and confidence to act on your dreams. There had been a “big idea” floating around in my head for a long time, and this was the year, to act, and make this dream happen.

You may know that my “Big Goal” is to create and deliver an on-line class that combines journaling with painting, called Art of Gratitude. (It’s almost ready!)

It’s been an ambitious goal for a technology-challenged person such as myself. Some of the challenges:

  • Learning how to edit movies in i-movie and use Vimeo
  • Redesigning my website
  • Learning to use an on-line course delivery system
  • Setting up a way to order art supplies through my website (done!)
  • Building my subscriber list and using email management systems

Is your head spinning? So is mine. It has been all year long. (Note: that list doesn’t even include writing the material and painting the paintings!)

I blogged once about how to eat an elephant, and The Art of Gratitude on-line course is my elephant! I hope you will check it out when it’s ready!

Tell us about your “elephant” so we can all encourage you too!
