3/12/2016 0 Comments Goal SettingLegacy, Long-Term & Short-Term Objectives  It is Saturday morning and I've got goals! I started with three questions:
That's when the fun began. I've always loved cutting things out of magazines. I have an entire biology textbook from highschool that is filled from start to finish with collages. While drinking my morning tea (David's english breakfast ), ripping out any page that struck my fancy, I came across a recommendation for Rodan & Fields Acute Care! I'm an R+F consultant so it's especially great when you realize you represent a company that doesn't need to spend a dime on advertising because it's reputation precedes it. After my little R+F hoorah moment, I continued on decimating my stack of magazines. So now I have a stack of ripped up magazines cut up into little pieces. Thank goodness I live in Fort McMurray where stocking up at Ikea isn't a luxury it s necessity. I grabbed one of the many Ikea SAXNÄS frames (a steal at $5.99 CAD) and started to place the images that matched my goals on the big blank page (just flip the grey page in the frame around - perfect fit). After about a million adjustments I started pasting the images and layering them on with a Scotch Adhesive Dot Roller (amazing invention with no mess). I'm thrilled with the result - a framed collage of my legacy goals - it is hanging up in my dressing room so I get to see it every day. I hope it serves not only as motivation for my legacy goals, but inspiration that I can overcome anything. The past year has involved some lifemageddon sized drama from outside sources. As much as I want to plan every detail out of fear, it isn't the answer. Life happens.

About me
I grew up in Athabasca, AB and have spent the majority of my life in Northern Alberta or Montreal, PQ. My husband has been in Fort McMurray since the 70s and continues to love this town and all that it has to offer. We are avid outdoor enthusiasts, spending our summer weekends quadding and camping. As Opimian members we thoroughly enjoy wine pairings and tastings and are working on our wine collection. Ralph is a carpenter by trade and has framed more houses in Fort McMurray than I could count and knows the city inside and out. I work all throughout the region from the NWT to Janvier for the tribal council. My passion is doodling and photography which is featured throughout the website (various mediums), writing, Indigenous studies, and learning in general. Categories |
