Dreaming Until It Becomes A Reality

I most recently worked for one of the most entrepreneurial men that you will ever meet.  Seriously, he could hear an idea of what McDonald's was doing and convert the idea into the McNugget of the legal world in minutes.   He was a pure genius as a visionary! 

My greatest strength was helping his visions on a scrap piece of paper or hotel notepad come to reality.   Obviously, they were his ideas and his money fronting the adventure so I had to cater to his wishes and wants but he gave me such leeway with creativity during these times.  This was the part of my job that got me fired up and excited to see what he would come up with next.

Several times a year he would go to conferences and I could not wait to get the email or have the mini-planning meeting to see what the next project would be.  I thrived and was delighted in the feel of being able to create his dream from one small piece of paper.  I loved helping him create himself into a larger that life character. 

My job was intoxicating at times. 
 

When Kagan got diagnosed with cancer, we decided that it was best that I not return to work.  At this point in time, I needed to be a mom at home more than work a job.   It was a very difficult decision but it was the right one. 

Now, as we grow closer to the days when life will return to normal I am considering what I want to do when I return to the workforce.   Then it really hit me!  I don't want to return to the same kind of workforce. 

I want to do what I love everyday so that I get that intoxicated feeling.  I want to drown in the feeling of accomplishment of turning an idea into a reality. 

I want what I had convinced myself I was not worth having on my own.   

I got a call regarding some possibilities that might allow me to stay at home and work from home with the flexibility that I want.  I would get to write, which has always been a dream of mine.   I would also get to incorporate my skill sets to help others have a voice. I would get to put the Project Management and Life Coach skills I have into play full time.   

There is still time that must pass and priorities that need to get sorted out before my dream is a reality.  However,  this is where my today's quote comes in.   I am hoping that you will help me by reading the blog...commenting on the blog and being a part of my little online world.  It is BIG  thing that will help me achieve the dream I want. 

I am asking YOU if you will HELP?
