When dreamers come together

I've been so busy lately that it just suddenly hit me that I was out of things to do.  Really.  I am.

I have been working so hard to complete all these tasks and all of a sudden...I'm done.  And there are no more tasks rolling in.  I have kept doing what I've always done.  I keep applying for sponsored posts here and there.  I have been working on writing quality posts on the blogs.  (At least I hope they are quality...)  And I always believe that if I just keep plugging along, good things will come my way.

Yes, that's what I choose to believe.

At the same time, I know that I have to work for all this to happen.  I never expect anything to simply fall in my lap.  It is all a product of my time and effort.

So it is good when I get a moment to catch up with someone in a similar situation...someone also trying to make self-employment dreams a reality.  Meredith and I caught up with each other via Skype.  And even though we only chatted for about 20 minutes, it gave me so much to think about.

It's good for dreamers to share ideas and put their heads together.  We are working on some projects right now, ways to build our businesses, ways to grow and support our families.  Meredith has a lot of really good ideas...for both of us.  I was kind of in a funk.  That can happen when I've spent days writing SEO articles.  They don't exactly inspire my creative juices to flow.  It's my least favorite form of writing.  Ah, but it pays some bills.  Just some.

And that's why we talked.  And that's why we are working to figure out ways to get ahead.  We have plans to grow.  I treasure our friendship.  I need to keep people like Meredith around to keep me inspired, to keep me on task.

Thanks, Meredith for helping this dreamer get in the right frame of mind.
