find your creative voice :: day 8 :: what platform do you own now?

This is the eighth installment in a series, Find Your Creative Voice, based on the article 10 Questions that Will Help You Find Your Voice over at Accidental Creative, because it’s so important to find your voice when building a comfortable nest, be it a one room apartment or a sprawling mansion. I will be answering the questions that author Todd Henry has posed, and I hope that you will answer them too.

In case you missed the first, second, third, fourth, fifth, sixth, or seventh installment…

Question 8 :: What platform do you own now?

You can have all the dreams in the world, but if you don’t make a move to follow through and take steps to begin the journey to make those dreams come through, what good are they?

Sometimes – many times – we may not be in the perfect situation to do a full launch of the major dream. Just as often there is a way to kick it off low key. Small steps, you know?

So what platform do you own now? What can you start doing now?

Homes are my passion. I want to buy them, design them, renovate them, and decorate them.

However, right now I’m not in the financial position to launch a full-scale renovation operation. I’m a single mom with two kids, one of them in college, plus I work full time in another industry. So it’s just not feasible now.

But I do have a platform I own now…my house. Why not start with what I have? It’s the place that I can begin to launch my dreams. It may not the ultimate end goal, but it’s what I can do for now. The place that I can practice my craft. My launching pad.

What platform do you own now?
