I AM ON MY WAY... STEP 2

"The journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step" ~ Lao Tzu Today I received a letter in the mail from a Publishing Company located in downtown Chicago. This document stated that I can make transactions and conduct business under the business name that I applied for in my last/first blog. WOW!!! That is another step in the direction that I want to go... I am on my way. Another goal that I have reached recently is the in-home studio that I officially finished building. I have all the basic necessities that I need to create, edit, and record music. Of course the equipment that I am currently using can and one day will be upgraded... like I said I have the basics. LOL!!! I am very proud of where I am and I am even more excited about where I am going... Oh yeah one more thing I have made my final decision on a logo for the company. The graphic design artist did a wonderful job interpreting the idea that I had and brought it to life beautifully. Everything is coming together; I am thankful and grateful for that. I ended my day with a pizza (not delivery... DiGiorno) and oven baked french fries. There are instances on this journey I don't have time to sit down for a three course meal, sometimes I need something to grab and go to keep a steady pace... Pizza and fries always do the trick.

The Journey Begins

"The journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step" ~ Lao Tzu Yesterday I took the first step of a long and soon to be successful journey. I went downtown Chicago to file documents to make this business venture legal. I have mixed emotions about this, because on one hand I am happy that I did it and I am headed in the direction to fulfill my dream, on the other hand I feel that this is something that I should have done a long time ago. But now that I express these feelings aloud, I realize that everything happens in its own time, the way that it should happen. I am grateful in more ways than one for this reality. Yesterday I also had to publish a legal notice in a Chicago newspaper. I never published anything in a newspaper before... but then again I'm sure that on this journey I will be doing a lot of things I've never done. A light bulb just came on in my head and it is shining down on the fact that... the only way a person can grow and make progress in life is by doing things that they have never done. After my downtown adventure I celebrated my first day of official business by eating one of Chicago's famous italian beef sandwiches and a gyro with extra tzatziki aka cucumber sauce. Yeah, I know that a lot of food, but I need to fuel up for the journey ahead. "Believe in your dreams, for even those that seem out of reach, are safe in unseen hands". ~ Unknown
