start now.

it happens.  life gets in the way and things get pushed off to another date.  life takes over and then, when you look back on everything you had wished you had accomplished, you'll inevitably wonder, "why didn't i just start?"

i hear ya.  i have many, many things in my life that i want to accomplish- most of those have been on the agenda for years.  and well, today is a new day.  today is the day to start fresh,  press the restart button and dive in.  

for me, i'm finding motivation while helping a friend make a mini book for her sister's engagement.  it's inspired me to jump in, get my hands dirty and to spend at least 30 minutes a day lost in the creative process of making something.  i'm also motivated by a messy bathroom project that's taking way too long to finish.  so by the end of this week we're going to finish building the shelves and painting so we can finally enjoy the new space and live in it once again.  

it isn't much, but it's something.  and once i've created mounds of beautiful things for friends and our home, i'll be thankful i started.  and every morning, when i begin my day in the perfect, tranquil space we created today, i'll be so thankful we didn't wait.  procrastination is over-rated.  don't ya think?

so just start.  you won't regret it.
