Baby Steps

So, I wander down the path ahead of me, and wonder, "where am I going?" I know where my destination is, but I have no idea how to get there. I keep telling myself that it's all about baby steps. And that's just what I'm doing. I can't expect to reach my goal immediately. But, I feel like it's time to take a new step. 
I am happy that I am doing what I enjoy and making some money - but the jobs that I've had have been inconsistent. I have work once in a while -  and mostly through word of mouth of friends. And all the work that I have had has just been for tips - not actual paying gigs. So, I feel like it's time for the next step. But, what? How do I find gigs? Where do I get jobs? I'm not really that internet savvy, so I don't know how to exploit this resource....that's the purpose of this blog.
I am attempting to chronicle my journey and hopefully figure out a way to gain some exposure along the way. I'm not entirely sure that this is the way to do it, but I figure, it's a step. And that's what it's all about, isn't it? One step after the other...one by one until you get to the end. As long as I'm moving forward and not back, I'm doing the right thing, I think.
This week, I will be continuing my yoga teacher training - that will keep me very busy. And that's a very good thing. And not just busy, but actually busy in a constructive way.This week is another step towards one of my goals. Soon, this journey will be complete and I will be certified to teach yoga. And then a whole other journey will begin....; )

The First Step

So, I have decided that the time has come to start a blog....I don't know if this is a good idea or not, but I figure that it's a start. I am trying to change my life around and live my bliss. The biggest hurdle that I face is how to get myself out there....

A little bit about myself. I am an artist, aspiring yogi and spiritual Jill-of-all-trades. I want to bring more spirituality into my world and to those around me. As an artist, I paint and do henna. I am in the process of getting certified to teach yoga. I am also an intuitive tarot reader. All of these things tie into my spirituality. I would like to live a more integrated life, but I am still unsure how to do that. 

I have been following a couple of amazing women online, Marie Forleo and Hillary Rubin, and came up with the idea of blogging. This is something that they both do and do well - and it seems to be key in marketing. So, I thought I would give it a try. My hope is to chronicle my professional development as well as promote and support some other like-minded businesses. I would like to contribute to a more holistically minded online community as well as draw inspiration from others.....so, let's see how it goes!!
