Starting this website was the easy part. Putting together this website is the commitment. I thought hard on the title and finally settled on who I am...Vivaciously Designed. I then needed to decide how I am going to express vivaciously designed to my readers without sounding like a XXX website. I knew I would be writing on my thoughts. But what kind of thoughts? How can I get through to my reader, YOU, with the hope my words will give you the desire to follow your dreams? Ideas. Inspirations. Reflections. What can you expect to find on this page? The purpose of my writing is not to teach you something you haven't heard or learned, rather to expand beliefs, thoughts, theories, and opinions. To explore how to create the balanced life we all are searching for. Some of what you will read here on my website are old ideas with my twist to their meaning in life. I will use my personal experiences on how to take a concept and create an experience worth living...or not. You will also read about my personal spiritual reflections. I am a follower of Jesus Christ and am blessed to see principles taught in scripture used in other spiritual guiding principles being taught. The goal of my spiritual reflections are to teach Biblical principles and how they are applicable to keeping a balanced life in the world we live in. All ideas, inspirations, and reflections are my personal, original thoughts backed by my personal guarantee:
I am available as a personal coach affordable to anyone and everyone. If you read something you would like further consulting on, contact me and together we will see you through the process of finding your personal design. Stay tuned for a website only special to be introduced by the end of the week. In the mean time, keep dreaming! You have to start somewhere! ~T

Today I woke up so excited to share an idea here on my new website. It is the idea of creating something out of nothing. A thought is a thought. An idea is an idea. At least that is what they are until we put the thought or idea into action. Many times so many of us are waiting until everything is perfectly in place until we move within the thought or the idea. What if there is never a perfect time to move? I am the first one to admit I spent most of my life doing what has previously been called "half-measures". Always starting something, thinking of doing something, working to accomplish something yet most always doing it for a little while...waiting for a result...only to find within a short amount of time I quit. This website is a perfect example. When I went to build a website about two weeks ago, I ran across Weebly.com. It is a free website creator. I went to set up a new account only to find out I already had one. I don't remember creating it! It turns out I set up the vivaciouslydesigned.weebely.com account in 2010 and never did anything with it. I had a thought. I had an idea. I just never accomplished moving within the thought or idea...until now. Creating something out of nothing is allowing oneself understanding there is no perfect time to move, to take action. Instead perfection comes in the doing. There are failures and there are successes in the moving. Even failures are considered a success because each time one falls down they learn what NOT to do. I have spent a lifetime dreaming about making a difference in the world. How I have pictured it is grandiose...a huge impact. I have decided it doesn't matter how big the impact, rather that I am just doing something to make a difference. Hence, the website...two years later. The impact I make is to just be to the world a reflection of what I want the world to be. Creating something out of nothing means to stop waiting for a perfect time, a perfect place. or a perfect reason. Just start moving toward the desired result. I used to believe I needed to pay for a website name in order to have a credible website, to be a credible life coach, to make an impact upon the world around me...even if it is just one person at a time. Today I woke up excited to have a place to share my heart, my ideas, and my reflections. I created something out of nothing...and the cool part is...it didn't cost me a thing except my desire to move! The last time I reflected on this title, I wrote a poem that forever changed my life. It was November 2002. I was a drug addict and really trying to get my life in order. This poem came to me and I wrote it. I have sense misplaced my only copy, yet have never forgotten the impact it had on my life. Today, at another crossroads in life I hear the same words: Today is the first day of the rest of your life! What are you willing to do to change? I have spent a lifetime dreaming of writing. In fact, I have written in secret, in my head, in my journal, and on napkins all the while imagining of becoming a renowned writer everyone fell in love with. Well, guess what? Unless I share my writing how in the world would I expect to become a renowned writer? Today I change the rest of my life. Today I share my writing with you. Vivaciously Designed is a place to share my writing with you. My thoughts. My ideas. My reflections. My heart. Each one of us are uniquely designed, most of us keep our design to ourselves. We come up with so many excuses and why not's we never reach our full potential. My personal why not is "there are so many other people writing about the same thing I will write about so why will they want to hear what I have to say." It is time to turn the why not! into WHY NOT? Because I enjoy it. Because it gives me a chance to get it all out. Maybe somewhere along the line I just might happen to touch your heart. Today is the first day of the rest of YOUR life. What is it you are willing to do to change? P.S. If I run across my poem, you all will be the first one's I share it with! |
