80 days and counting until my Blast Off Book Launch..In The Creative Zone

So many people have asked me, ” Where did you find the time to write a book with your busy life?” I had always envisioned myself taking two months off and hiding away in some rustic cabin with no interference from the outside world. I would just disconnect from everyone and everything and get into a writing frenzy until the book was done. Well, that was never going to happen, nor did I really want to do that. I have a family that I enjoy spending time with and many homeopathy and coaching clients that I enjoy working with. And disappearing for two months is not my reality anyway. In my book, Blast Off, I teach the reader how to create their deepest dreams while living in the real world. So disconnecting from society while creating my own dream did not seem like a good fit.

Anticipation: Day 108 of Countdown to Blast Off Launch

Remember those times as a child when you were anticipating an event that was so unbelievably exciting, you could hardly stand it, such as your birthday party or going to Disneyland? Your enthusiasm would bubble up inside. Meanwhile, the days went by so slowly. I remember being ten years old and anxiously awaiting going to summer camp. It was only three days away and I was so excited. I was also perplexed at the sense that as the time grew nearer, the days seemed to be getting longer and longer. I told my mom, “I’m counting the minutes until Saturday and why is it taking forever to arrive?” I had figured out that once I went to sleep that night, I’d only have two more days and one more night left until I would be at camp. “What if I just stay in bed ’til Saturday,” I said. “Then it would only seem like one more day until camp, instead of two.” My mom responded with some advice that has stayed with me to this day: “Allie, never wish your days away. Cherish every single one… because if you wish the away, you may miss out on something wonderful.”As we age, time starts speeding up and those long anticipatory days happen less and less often. Instead of having time to wander in your backyard and dream of being an astronaut or a veterinarian, you barelyhave time to figure out what to cook for dinner.

As I am counting down the days until my Blast Off book release on January 19, 2010, I am consciously savoring every moment of every day. I am also setting a very clear vision of Blast Off as a best selling book and a very direct pathway for all you dreamers out there to turn your hopes and longings into a concrete, tangible abundant reality.

I invite you to join into the discussion of making your own dreams a reality.

Sign up for my Blast Off Book Launch reminder. My group of authors, experts, coaches will be offering gifts worth thousands and Blast Off is released on January 19, 2001.

120 Days Until Launch Time!

Thanks for joining me for my countdown. Only 120 days left as I share my personal journey to making my biggest dream come true. Somehow when I was younger, 120 days would seem like an eternity. Now it seems like just a few blinks and January 19th will be here.

The whole concept of time boggles my mind. There never seems to be enough of it and yet, when I am working out with my trainer, Marcus, every seconds feels like a decade! (He was extra brutal today.)

How I came to writing my book had many twists and turns. All roads have led to a wonderful place, but in a few of instances, the path was windier and bumpier than I had anticipated. I am sure you have had that experience. You are gritting your teeth with disappointment one moment and then months later you look back and think, “Oh, yeah. Now I get it. Thank God that didn’t work out. This is so much better!” This is the life stuff you just can’t make up and you cannot plan. There always seems to be a better, bigger plan, but you just can’t see it at the time. Read more »
