To start off the New Year.....

I just wanted to say THANKS to all the blogs who were generous enough to feature my new line of Greeting cards! It really means a lot when people help each other the way you've all helped me so far.

This new year I am hoping to bring more awareness to my products and designs. So, if any blogger out there is interested in featuring my work, just let me know & i'll link you too! Hope this NEW YEAR brings everyone lots of success and to those people out there that want to start your own business, I say go for it!! In my opinion, if you feel lost, write to smaller companies and ask them questions like :

• How did you get started?
• What keeps you motivated everyday?
• What should I do if I've started, but then run into a situation where I don't know which way to go next?
• How do I believe in myself enough to succeed?
• Is my product good enough?
• I have a great idea, how can I market it without spending a lot of money?

These are questions I get asked by many women who email me after viewing my site or blog, I try to answer as many as I can but I realize I may have to post a blog about this so I can help others that may not bother emailing to find out. I hope this new year YOU will have the courage to take a chance at YOUR dream. Everyday in my email I receive daily inspiration from a website called "Charity Focus'. I will leave you with the email from today's Daily good that was sent to me. ' You may be whatever you resolve to be. Determine to be something in the world, and you will be something. "I cannot," never accomplished anything; "I will try," has wrought wonders. -- J. Hawes
