Yes I Can

“When was the last time you did something new for the fist time?” As of last week I had a hard time coming up with an answer to this question. However, in the last couple days my life has been full of things I’ve done for the first time. I have a website (not totally up and running but on its way) I have a business meeting scheduled today to discuss how to prepare a business plan. I might have found an investor that will help me launch my dream site and I’m helping taking care of a very well behaved golden lab named Rufus. If you know me then you know I am NOT a dog person. Things are changing very quickly and headed in the right direction. I think all this inspiration has directly come from the club I joined 2 months ago. I just needed that extra push and encouragement to get my energy flowing again. Last night I sat down at the SIP and listened to live Jazz while I sat out on the patio drinking ice water, my notebook in hand I jotted down everything I want my website to include. To see it all written on paper and to know that somehow this is all going to work out makes me think “yes Celia you can.”

I can now cross this off my list

I have some exciting news…I finally took the first step in running my own internet business. I bought the domain name www.lookwhatididtoday.com. During my last women’s entrepreneur club meeting I felt a rush of energy to really get my company started. Up until then, I was a little afraid to actually make a definite step and make my idea real. I still have to set up the site, but I will hopefully have it going this week. I’ve read many blogs over the last two weeks and now I feel like I can confidently blog with the rest.

Bringing families together...

I'm extremely excited about my upcoming website that soon will be created. Recently I joined a women's entrepreneur club to learn about how I should go about launching my site. We meet once a month and share our goals, give advice on how to overcome obstacles and encourage one another in achieving our dreams. I am dating a man who has a wonderful son from a previous marriage; however like most separated families his child only see's his mommy every other weekend and school holiday. Also, like divorced families the relationship between the parents is tense and children can always sense this. Therefore, I came up with the idea to create a website for kids where they can go to and share with the other parent what they did that day. Look what I did today.com was born. I quickly started brainstorming and came up with some great ideas. Living in today’s high level of web knowledge kids would love to have their own private webpage. (passwords and high security is a must) The child can update his or her page daily, if needed with the help of an adult and customize the layout. I read in the National Vital Statistics Report that in 2007 the divorce rate in America is 49.3%. We need a way for children to contact and share their day to day life with their mommy's and daddy's and I feel this is just the way to do so. Now all I have to do is make this website a reality.
