Goals and Dreams

This past Saturday I graduated from business school and earned an MBA.  It was a goal I thought about for many years.  Finally I decided the years will pass anyway so I might as well have a degree to show for the time.  Twenty-seven months later I crossed the stage.  At the same time I went back to school I started writing down goals.  It is amazing how powerful it is to have a list of goals to look at and work toward.  I write a new list each year.

At my commencement the speaker, who has been quite successful starting businesses we all know, talked about the fact that he keeps a notepad by his bed to write down ideas that come to his mind during the night.  He has in fact followed many of the dreams and they have made a difference to him and many people around him.

My next gifts are a couple note pads for the finders to write down their own goals and dreams!  If you think about your goals and work toward them they will be accomplished!

  

Mother's Day Scratch Tickets

I keep a box at home for this Undercover Ladybug project, and I fill it with gifts, ribbons, markers, and all the items I need to create and label my little gifts.  When looking through the box this morning I noticed I had three scratch tickets.  Since today is Mother's Day I thought they would make the perfect small gift to leave in a few different restaurants to be found by a Mom or maybe a child who will give it to a Mom. Good luck to the finders!
