Captains log - Entry 1

I'll be honest, its a pretty scary thing saying you are going to reach for the stars when you are not sure you even have a rocket ship to get there. It takes time, energy, and a lot of uphill battling to get to where you want to be.

One day down the road I don't want to wake up to look in the mirror and find that I didn't try hard to see my dreams come true. It sounds a little childish, but I think we all need a little more child-like spirit in us. Children just believe that things are going to happen. They want something and therefore they ask and seek until they get it. They don't second guess themselves as much as those who are older do. They dream big and believe that anything is possible. I don't want to loose that part of me.

I'm still nervous about stepping out with the information that Dean has given. I have no doubts that it works because I have seen it with my family and countless others at the Edge event this year. Self doubt is always trying to derail us. Self talk is an amazing thing. You start telling yourself the actual TRUTH about who you are and all of a sudden, you are sitting down and getting some actual work done for a change.

I want to start by getting my "why". I won't get very far without it. I have a lot of reasons why I want to do this, but I haven't gone deep enough to discover the true power of my why. My mom and I are going to do the seven levels deep this afternoon. I'm scared, but really excited. Because I know once I find what that is, this girl will be on fire!!
