Sometimes a decision to act can trump the best thoughts one can have. Thinking is great, I can sit in the garden thinking for hours, I can run for hours as my mind drifts from topic to topic, wondering about possibilities and who knows what else! I love to think but sometimes thinking needs to stop and action needs to act.
For many people the fear of action is what stops them from attempting something new, trust me I know that fear! Meeting someone new or venturing outside the so to speak 'normal' bubble that we occupy from day to day. When our electrically charged brain fires in such a way to form a thought we are left with a very important decision. Act or think about acting. Yes, it is important to think before acting in almost all cases but I urge you to act when it is time to act. Trust yourself, you will know when it's time to act.
Today I took action. It did take many months/years of thought before action but it was finally time to act and it needed to be now! Scary? YES, f%$# YES!
My decision to act was prompted by an amazing conversation I had with my friend Sarah. Sarah is smart, honest and provided me with some clarity. Thank you sarah :)
So my From The Heart action has taken place and as they say; the wheel is in motion.
From The Heart is a socially responsible organisation that will provided health and well-being education for children and families. Allowing the younger generation to learn and develop healthy habits from the get go. This Non for profit education resource will develop menus, programs, classes, tips, camps, games, work shops along with many more things! We're going to make learning about health and well-being easy, fun and for everyone :)
So action has started the process and journey for From The Heart. It is by no means up and running but the first steps have been taken The goal of raising $30,000 by the time I get to Perth will help create the online platform needed to expand our vision into reality. Every day it is time to act and every day I will take action towards the ultimate goal.
It may not seem scary to start a non for profit organisation and on the surface I can understand that. I am aware at how time consuming this project will be and understand what needs to be done. Personally I'm not in the best financial place and that makes this process more daunting. Not knowing how I can fund my journey from Melbourne to perth, let alone create From The Heart. I just know I will. I have faith in myself and faith in hard work. If I can take care of the little things and act when I need to act, I know everything will work out in the end.
Am I scared? YES, F%$# YES! Am I ready? YES, F%$# YES!
Have you acted on something recently? If not do you think you should? It's a very important question to ask yourself and remember, what's the worst that can happen when you act? You might fail! Lucky that every failure is a chance to grow and learn :)
All a matter of perception.
