Mindful Minute: Gratitude

Local businesses that get excited about my small business venture fill my heart with so much gratitude. The beautiful soul helping me create the bank account was like a long lost friend and we reveled in finding kindness in each other and proceeded to an over-sharing session. An account that could have taken an hour to establish stretched almost to two hours. Her support and confidence that upgrading to a new account is in my near future pumped me up. At the local copy shop, the young person at the counter was so complimentary about the canvases I was having prints made from. As I told him about my Etsy shop dreams and aspirations, he encourage me to “go for it”! His encouragement meant so much to me and told him so.

Starting this new journey has filled me with excitement but also worry. In those moments when fear starts to creep in, I am presented with opportunities to express gratitude. When the doubts start to drive, I find a way to be thankful for something or someone along the way. I got me first “follow” on the blog and that email brings so much joy. (Yes, I have looked at it several times this week!) The site counter in my stats page keeps going up each day and I am so encouraged to see where this can go!
