I just re-read my first Risk a Day blog post (October 31st) to see what risk(s) I’d reported having taken then and to refresh my memory about to what risk(s) I’d committed.  It’s only been two months since then, not a long time, but I feel SOOO far past where I was then.

Since my last post here, I’ve begun my own blog and have posted several times (http://angelguided.wordpress.com/), even sharing the posts on Facebook, and have gotten some nice feedback.  It was a risk to begin the blog and, to a somewhat lesser degree, remains a risk to post weekly.  However, it’s not NEARLY as scarey as I thought it would be.  And it feels less and less like a risk as I honor my commitment and honor myself by doing what I’m doing.

Another risk I’ve taken during the time since my last post here is that I wrote and published my first AngelGuided newsletter (please let me know if you’d like a copy and I’ll email it to you).  I was frantic and crazed for several hours (what seemed like days!) and yet, in retrospect, it feels like it was MUCH easier than I had feared and/or anticipated.  Again, I did what I had committed to doing and not only survived it, but felt/feel really good about having done it.  And, in fact, I sold several gift certificates for my services to one of my readers.  Y E A H ! ! ! ! !

One more risk I’ve been actively pursuing is executing the beginning stages of an effort to market my business/website (www.angelguided.com) and to attract more clients.  What initially seemed like an unsurmountable challenge and huge risk has become a game, and I look forward each day to determing how far I’ve advanced in my efforts since the previous day.  Hmmmm . . . so much for seemingly overwhelming risk taking.

I guess what I’m realizing (yet again!) is that by putting one foot in front of the other, taking small (and big) trips outside the box and my comfort zone, AND with the help and support of both my physical and non-physical support team members, I can bring to fruition the things to which I’ve committed, and I can happily and gratefully persist on my path.  In the moment, whatever I’ve commited to doing often feels overwhelming, scarey, crushingly difficult, etc.  But, if I just do it, it gets done . . . and, after the fact, it’s never really been as hard as I thought it would be.

Finally, I want to publicly commit to the taking following risks before I write my next post here, which will be the end of February:  by then, I will have written and published my second AngelGuided newsletter (for which you can sign up at www.angelguided.com); I will have written and posted a WEEKLY blog entry on my personal blog; and I will have increased my marketing efforts by at least half.  I’m sure there will be other risks that will present themselves to me, and I commit to taking them as they arise.

I hope you have a wonderful, healthy, happy, joyous, abundant, creative, enriching, fulfilling, _____________ (fill in the blanks that best suit you) 2010.  Shalom.

Love and angel hugz,
