keeping me up at night.

I have been on this so-called mission to launch my new business, for... hmmm... a WHOLE YEAR.  I started this year with a re-kindled spirit to stop procrastinating on my long sought after vision - and make it work for me.  I started conversations with people, but never finished.  I started writing my business plan, but never finished.  I started and restarted my logo about 22 times... and after 6 months of my own under-whleming design, I finally finished that chapter after a 20 minute intervention with a fellow designer friend.

What I have managed to finish on my own was my chai tea latte (every day), the perfect self-motivational speech that I recite daily, and my quasi-website.  So nearly a year later, what do I have to show?

Well, by the grace of God, I have a handful of happy clients who allowed me to craft their vision (though mine was still in progress), a growing portfolio, and... my quasi-website. Lately, I have been working on two weddings that are a week apart next June... so you can imagine the late night conversations I have been having. 

That said... i'm done with the frill of a "renewed spirit" or an "invigorated sense of purpose" - it's time to gett'r done... or someone else will.
