Pumpkin spice latte for your thoughts

I found a blog post I typed up in our local Starbucks, from about a month and a half ago. Some of it still applies to now but I thought it was full of gems. May you fellow dancers and dance lovers find some inspiration.

Here it is:

I thought I would be THAT blogger - sat in Starbucks with my first ever try at the Autumn favourite, Starbucks own, Pumpkin Spice Latte and blog.

Chilled,' vibey' music in the background, healthy cocoa and quinoa snacks I bought at a health shop and my not so vegan but gorgeous leather satchel I bought on holiday - what seems forever ago, by my feet.

Well we all try do our bit for earth, nature and our bodies.

In all honesty I'm not ok today and wondering if I will get past wanting to cry every moment. This week felt like it was out to get my butt. I'm not well thanks to a cold type thing, sleep is not regular and deep at the moment and I had to give ballet a pass because I need to recover before I push myself in dance class.

I have cried more than I ever intended to, in front of some people at work, but there isn't any sign of weakness in that, just a soft soul being a bit battered. However there have been rainbows.

Thing is, opening up to someone you trust, but never shared with before gives you some new perspective and fresh life advice. A fellow dancer has offered to take the time to give me a few pointers on my blog stuff and a few ideas I have. So really I have kicked this week's butt I think!

My brain and heart are so full of ideas I just need to zone out and put it all on paper and work out my action plan.

There are so many projects I'm buzzing about but my challenge is getting as much as I can set up with out spending any money - not that I'm being tight fisted it's just there really isn't cash lying around at the moment. So I have taken on the challenge, because why not.

My short term goal is to continue to boost my blog and then get a website. My long term goal is to get my dance studio.

At the end of the day no one said it would be easy but as long as we have short and long term goals and I still have the passion to mentally choreograph a dance bit as I sit in Starbucks. I think I may just be ok.

Share some challenges you are facing fellow dancers and dance lovers, some personal goals and some rainbows by blog post or by email on dancegrace2@gmail.com

Love to all xx
