Through this blog I will take you on a journey which passes between memories of my past and present day. You will be introduced to people, situations and experiences which in turn have all woven their way into the rich tapestry of my life.
I hope you enjoy reading it as much as I will enjoy sharing it with you!
The Journey of the Sunflower starts here:
I count myself lucky in that I have an amazing memory. As a result of this I am able to re-call memories from every decade of my life so far.
This weeks blogs recalls a memory of my Grandfather... a Grandfather who was a hero of mine, a strong man with strong views and strong arms to lift you up when you fell. When I was at a very young age my Grandfather built me a swing in the apple tree that stood outside the sitting room window, that swing was a joy and taught me to reach for the heights above!
As his strong capable hands tied the knots over the branches I watched with anticipation. The wooden seat was tested by him so he could be sure it was safe for me. It was on that swing, although I didn't realise it then, that I learnt by sheer determination and belief you can aspire to rise to any heights you want. I loved that swing and even take great joy in hopping on to a swing at any time I get to visit a park today.
This week on the 20th July it would of been my Grandfathers 104th birthday, it is with great joy that I know that even though he passed on many years ago he has left me with that determination and a belief to aim high. If you reach for the moon then you have a chance of reaching it, you will meet many stars along the way and be sure you never to forget to thank them for joining you on your journey.
On the anniversary of his birthday this week I facilitated my 1st 'High Confidence Strategies for Entrepreneurs Workshop' - I spent a great day coaching a group of participants who all have fab businesses. Through sharing my motivational message to aim high, believe and be determined I am sure these Entrepreneurs will enjoy a successful journey ahead.
This weekend think about your dreams and pitch them high - stand tall and take a swing towards them.
Have a great week and join me next Friday for another memory which again will lead me to share with you the part it has played on my journey to the positive life I live today.
