In September 2012, I took the leap, along with 592 other people, and took an online course called Flying Lessons, with Kelly Rae Roberts, a mixed media artist/creative business course entrepreneur. It took a lot to make this decision for me, because at the time, it was costly on my very tight budget. I had recently separated from my husband, and was fearing the future in many ways, even though I knew it was the right decision. My little business could use any ideas I could learn about. I must say, it was the best money I have ever spent. I learned so much and have made some lifelong friends. It's hard to believe it's been a year, but then again, it seems like I have known these ladies forever.
As a celebration of our Flying Lessons group, we are sharing the ways in which we live the Possibilitarian Project in our lives. Click the link below to follow the Blog Circle, and hear more from our amazing group of ladies!
To be a part of The Possibilitarian Project, all you have to do is say you want to be. You need to see possibility, live with possibility, and breathe possibility into things you never thought possible. Every so often, Kelly Rae Roberts will interview a person she feels lives this well, and shares their story. It is inspiring and makes me want to keep on going, no matter what. Through this simple concept, I have formed my business model. To see possibility in everything really sets you free...ANYTHING is indeed possible, and this quote from Dale Carnegie states it perfectly.
So with my business, and with my life, I try to always look at the possibility. What could possibly happen? What good could come out of this? What lesson did I learn through that error? What are my options? What is the possibility of this being a huge success? Or a little success? What could this possibly lead to? Is it possible for this to work? All of these thoughts run through my mind when doubt, negative self talk and downright fear strike. When you are the owner of your own business, it all comes down to you. You are the driving force behind it, and to stay in a mental space of possibility is such a great advantage...
I hope that you will make the choice to join ME and so many other Possibilitarians. It's easy...just say Yes!

Hi Monica, thanks for this post and the blog circle, I am enjoying going around, saying hello to all the beautiful Flying Sisters I met just one year ago. It's an amazing group, always supportive, always wishing each other well. I can only imagine what another year will bring, longer and stronger friendship and joy of creating I hope. Many Blessings to you :)
ReplyDeleteHi Monica, what a year it has been! Congratulations on all your accomplishments. I enjoy being able to share those exciting times with you. May they keep on keeping on. You have shown us things are possible :)
ReplyDeleteMonica, I love your post. It's lovely and beautiful. How brave it was for you to make the decision to take the ecourse under the circumstances you were in last year. I think that was really your first step into being a possibilitarian!
ReplyDeleteIt was interesting to read about how you use this way of viewing things as a business model - that really has given me a lot to think about! I think it's fascinating + makes a lot of sense. Thank you so much for sharing! <3
Love,
Becky
Always look at the possibility... Well said sister! I need to print this out and pin it to my wall...

Hi Monica, I really enjoyed your post, and being part of this blog circle is fantastic. Your positivity and bravery shine through and it's so wonderful that you took the leap last year when things didn't feel so bright.

I'm glad I met you guys through the class, and I continue to look forward to reading the blog circles, even when I don't participate!
