So far so good..

Tuesday, March 18, 2008

Hey everyone.

Just wanted to send a quick shout out to all who have viewed my site/blog.  I’m surprised with the total views esp. since i’ve only been open for about a week.  This is the eight day i’ve been up and we’ve hit (as of this minute) 377 page views.  I’m very proud of those results.  Thats on average 50 page views since the opening.  Yesterday was the best day with just over 97 hits.

I’m working on more content at the moment.  So far all it has been is idea after idea but I need to find a way for people who visit, to have a meaning to come back! I’ve got a few tricks up my sleeve but as for now i’m slowly becoming more and more recognized through organizations on Facebook and mybloglog.com.  Those are the  big boys for now.. Until then… thanks for the support!
All the best and have a great week! : )

Success begins with a thought.

Friday, March 14, 2008

I’ve always been intrigued by motivational quotes. There’s just something about them that catches my attention. Whenever I read a good one it’s almost as if I can feel something reaching out at me saying, “hey, you can do that,” or “give it a try, what do you have to lose?”

As it happened, in my English class this past week, we were assigned to create our own “Mission Statement” relating to our lives and what we want to accomplish. Some students blow these opportunities off but I find them inspiring. Our requirements were, well, nothing. It was totally up to us. Some students did drawings, others did phrases. I later on found myself writing a quote on a guideline to success. It went a little something like this,

Every fire begins with an initial flame,

Every flame begins with an initial ember,

And every ember begins with an initial spark.

Every spark has the potential to become a flame. With many flames, one creates a fire. In the same way, dreams can result in success. What many do not realize is that success lies upon the creation of a spark in ones’ mind.

I was happy with how it turned out. That wraps it up for now, please if you have any comments, anything at all we’d love to hear it.

 

All the best..Have a great weekend.

Ash Coffee Table

This is a table I designed and built last year. It’s made of all white ash. It didn’t take very long besides making the jig for the legs.  Read a little more about it here.

A new beginning.. And a fine one at that!
