Motivation Monday: Short n' Sweet

"The dream is real, my friends. The failure to realize it is the only reality."

- Toni Cade Bambara

Today's post is short and sweet; fulfill your dreams. My husband and I are photographers and aspiring business owners. Our dream has always been to run and manage a business - we want to be creative, operate as our own bosses and be challenged. While reviewing potential photos for a canvas in our new living room, we realized we are sluggish in making this dream a reality. We haven't promoted our business, marketed ourselves or took necessary risks to make things happen. Why? Not sure. Maybe it's fear. Uncertainty about our future. Lack of confidence. But looking through engagement, product, wedding and event photos we have taken over the last few years, we came to the conclusion that we can do this. So, it's as simple as that. We just need to fulfill our dreams. Take a step forward.

If you are in a similar position, I challenge you to also make that first move to realizing your dream. For motivation, check out the links below:
