A Dream is a Wish Your Heart Makes

Lately I haven't been a big fan of Disney, or at least Disney princesses...or perhaps just individuals who are too over the top and sweet to be real. After all, Snow White, Cinderella and the rest weren't real women. But that's another tangent. The line I used as a heading happens to be lyrics in one of those same Disney Princess movies. For some reason I've always liked the little phrase. And even more so today.
I recently became involved in the Shift-It program. It's a process of changing the way one thinks in order to manifest desired results. I downloaded the free webinar and accompanying materials in an attempt to help me with my business. But it has effected my personal life over the past two weeks as well. There is too much to go into in this blog post, but one of the main points is that if we think in a negative way, we tend to draw negative events to us. In that same vein, if we focus on thinking positive, like a magnet, the good things will be drawn to us.
I had no doubt it worked, as I've experienced it before, but I've just never taken the time to examine it and utilize it in my life with purpose.
Over the past few weeks I have followed the principles of 'asking' for those things that I want and need in my life and then thinking positively concerning them. And if the past two weeks of my life are any indication...it's true, the power of positive thinking is incredible. It appears that something I have wanted deeply, but never imagined was possible looks like its not only possible but probable. It's such a thrilling feeling. For lots of reasons...and very mind boggling. It makes me very excited to see the rest of my requests manifest as well.

It's been awhile

It seems like I'm always apologizing for my absence here at PGG. It's not that I don't have every intention of posting here regularly, but somehow during the course of my week, the intention is overridden by a myriad of things. Although Princess Girly Girl was my first foray into the world of blogging, and as such will always be a part of who I am, I've got this business thing going on. Yeah, that. I now maintain a biz blog as well as being a contributing editor for a growing website geared toward home based offices. Oh and don't forget the e-books. Yup, I've written my first e-book and am gearing up toward writing another. Both are business related, but who knows, perhaps in the not too distant future I'll write a Princess Girly Girl retrospective. Complete with opinions of course.
So anyway, with all of that writing I'm doing for business, trying to switch gears and write from a personal perspective can be hard.
So what's up in the pink castle? My daughter and her boyfriend of 6 months just moved into their own apartment yesterday. And I'm anticipating the departure of my son as he heads to North Carolina for college in August. Of course, I'm going to take the opportunity to take a quick trip down myself, as I'm hoping to follow him by October.
My business is going well, not as many clients as I'd like right now, but tons of contacts and networking, as well as some exciting collaborations in the near future. Still, I'm working on manifesting the money to move, as right now the penny jar is pretty empty.
And just when you think a jackass can't do anything to surprise you...my ex withdrew all support of my son the day he turned 18. No warning. No concerns. Just. Done. Now I know there are guys out there that will want me to understand that they should be able to do that, and I agree, but not when you've abused a wife and two children for 17 years without ever having to pay a penalty. No, in that case I think you should have to provide some sort of help a bit longer. At least until the boy is off to college. Am I wrong?
It's good to be back dear readers and I PROMISE to try to pop in at least once a week to keep PGG fresh and flirty.
