<a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-8uO1nyK1KOE/VkgIlDfly6I/AAAAAAAAmiE/icv7THWHQnk/s1600/Screen%2BShot%2B2015-11-15%2Bat%2B06.20.55.png" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="400" src="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-8uO1nyK1KOE/VkgIlDfly6I/AAAAAAAAmiE/icv7THWHQnk/s400/Screen%2BShot%2B2015-11-15%2Bat%2B06.20.55.png" width="268" /></a></div>
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
</div>
Growing up, I remember my mother sitting down and writing a quick note to put inside each Christmas card she sent out. She painstakingly signed each card from her and my father, addressed each of the hundred or more envelopes, stuck stamps on them and put them in the mail. Memories like those will live with me forever, and I carried on the tradition for many years myself, but I feel that it is a dying tradition for a lot of people. <br />
<br />
I’m still one of those traditional hold-outs, I guess. I actually enjoy sending out <a href="http://www.redbubble.com/people/mareeclarkson/collections/384596-art-christmas-cards" target="_blank">Christmas cards</a> — and, believe it or not, receiving them. I hang them up in my living room and studio as Christmas decorations, gazing at the smiling faces that seem so happy to be there. I love it.<br />
<br />
But in the event of you finding Christmas cards a bit of a waste, eventually destined for the dustbin, how about making a change?<br />
<br />
In stead of giving a greeting card for Christmas this year, how about a <a href="http://www.redbubble.com/people/mareeclarkson/shop/recent+hardcover-journals?ref=sort_order_change_recent" target="_blank">Hardcover journal</a>? Or a <a href="http://www.redbubble.com/people/mareeclarkson/shop/recent+spiral-notebooks" target="_blank">Spiral Notebook</a>? A lasting remembrance of a wonderful festive season that’s not going to be tossed into the dustbin. How about a <a href="http://www.redbubble.com/people/mareeclarkson/shop/mugs?ref=portfolio_product_refinement" target="_blank">coffee mug</a> to enjoy a wonderful Christmas morning hot steaming cup of coffee or eggnog?<br />
<br />
Because your Christmas greeting is an extension of yourself, you might want to purchase your greeting from someone that specialises in custom cards or other forms of Christmas greetings, making friends and loved ones feel special, showing that you really care.<br />

What a wonderful day! Before the Christmas madness starts, here's a thought to lower your blood pressure and get you to be a Calm Person. Aristotle said, “We are what we repeatedly do. Excellence then is not an act, but a habit.” <em></em>Even
if you can only spare five minutes, use it to stay in touch with your
self as a gathered soul. The point is to not lose your connection,
however fragile or loose, to the calm self that is being created. Hold
on to the effort and the belief that you will become such.<br />

<section class="grid-80 prefix-10 suffix-10 mobile-grid-100">
<span style="font-weight: 400;">If you haven’t gotten something
yet for mom, don’t panic, you’ve still got a few weeks – that is unless
it’s mum you’re shopping for…</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-weight: 400;">While May is traditionally the month
for mothers in South Africa and the US, in the UK and some other parts of Europe,
Mother’s Day, or Mothering Sunday as it’s best known, is celebrated on
the fourth Sunday of Lent – exactly three weeks before Easter. </span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-weight: 400;">Originally observed as a day for
people to attend church in their home-town (i.e. return to their “mother”
church), it has become more of a general occasion for honouring the
mothers of children and giving them presents much like the Mothers Day
that’s celebrated elsewhere in May.</span><br />
<br />
For those of you shopping for mum, don’t worry, there’s still some
time (Mothering Sunday this year lands on March 26th) and luckily for
you, I've got something for every type of mum/mom out there.<br />

<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
I don't know about you, but I'm totally mad for daisies! I plant them, I pick them, I eat them and I paint them! For starters, their name has the most charming origin. Daisy comes from the Old English "daes eage," meaning "day's eye." The
name refers to the way they close their petals in the evening, and open
again at dawn, marking the beginning of a new day!<br />
<br />
Daisies are found everywhere on Earth except the Arctics and belong to the family of 'vascular plants' - those which circulate nutrients
and water throughout the plant. They make up almost 10% of all
flowering plants on Earth. <br />

I love Daisies.<br />
No doubt about it, they are a happy flower.<br />
And tough as nails.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Some have long elegant petals that gracefully drape.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Some are more fluffy and ruffled than others.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
And some are more sedate with just a couple of rows of petals.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Each one seems to be slightly different than the next.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Of Thee, sweet Daisy!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
bold lover of the sun,</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
And cheerful when the day's begun</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Thy long-lost praise shall remain</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Art Nature's favourite.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

<br />
The other day I was reading the article <a href="http://painting.about.com/od/careerdevelopment/a/Are_U_Artist.htm"><span style="font-weight: bold;">"When can you call yourself an Artist?"</span></a> -<br />
- and doing this painting, for the first time I felt like an artist! Standing in front of the easel, arm outstretched with the Rigger, creating a beautiful masterpiece!<br />
<br />
For this wet-on-wet scene, after wetting the paper, I sketched the main outlines of my scene using my Rigger and Cerulean Blue, a "trick" I picked up at my watercolour workshop with Angela Eidelman a few years ago. I'm sure many of you use this technique (I know West Coast artist <a href="http://artistmarietheron.blogspot.com/"><span style="font-weight: bold;">Marie Theron</span></a> does), but I always used to be somewhat of a sketchy person, using my pencil, going into great detail with a lot of erasing happening. It's only been the past couple of years since I started practicing painting with no sketching beforehand that I feel confident enough to consider doing this. <br />
<br />
I didn't use any reference material either, just my imagination.<br />
<br />
By the way, to answer the question above, I think the best reply was as follows :<br />
<br />
<span style="font-style: italic;"><b>“You are an artist when you make art. Many artists spend their lives not selling their work … One of the first requirements for an artist is to ignore those who would define whether they are artists.

<br />
Whether or not you believe in Christmas, you don’t need to be a
Christian to appreciate Christmas as a time of compassion and kindness. The joy of family get-togethers and giving and receiving gifts is as old as the hills, and this time of the year there's always extra excitement in the air!<br />
<br />
I know it's the thought in the giving of a gift that counts, but how about breaking away from socks, ties, bath salts and candles this year and get a gift with meaning this year, something that shows you really thought about that friend or loved one during this festive season.<br />
<br />
In my RedBubble store you will find many items to delight any member of your family, a friend or someone you have not seen for ages. Sending a special gift to someone far spreads joy and a feeling of being special.<br />
<br />
So here are some suggestions to get your creativity flowing!<br />

<br />
Some days it feels like there just isn’t enough time! Well now,
you can have all the time you want with these new clocks which will be available in my <a href="http://www.redbubble.com/people/mareeclarkson?asc=u" target="_blank">RedBubble portfolio</a> shortly. This latest
product is perfect for those that like to watch time go by in the most
artistic way possible.<br />
<br />
The clock has a bamboo wood frame with a natural finish or painted black
or white. The clock has diameter of 10.25” and a frame frame depth of
2”. It has a high quality, printed polypropylene face and a quartz
clock mechanism. A hook is built into back of the face of the clock so
that you can easily hang it on the wall. <br />
<br />
I have chosen certain display settings for the clocks in my portfolio, but you will be able to customise the hand and frame colour yourself. Play around and see which setting you like best when purchasing a clock. <br />

<i>For those of you who rent, or would prefer not to poke holes in your walls…</i><br />
<ol>
<li><b>Velcro</b> – Yep, velcro. Self-adhesive velcro can be
purchased in long strips at many of your local hardware and craft
stores. Simply apply some sections along your tapestry, then a section
to the wall and VIOLA. Easy peasy. Tapestry hung.</li>
<li><b>Command adhesive strips</b> – Pretty much the ‘duct
tape’ of the modern home, adhesive strips can be wonderful for hanging
just about anything without adding holes to the walls or your tapestry.
An additional fun idea, you can use the <i>mini clothes-pins</i> that
come with every Redbubble tee or bulldog clips. Simply stick the
mini-pins or clips to the adhesive strips and you have a perfect way to
hang your tapestry, hole free.</li>

<i>Some other fun, styling tips for your tapestry:</i><br />
<ol>
<li><b>Headboard</b> – Fasten your tapestry around your bed’s headboard to create a relaxing space, reducing the need for all that sheep-counting.</li>
<li><b>Picnic Blanket</b> – What could be better than a music
festival or a picnic spent hanging out with your favorite artwork? Plus,
you can use it as a cover up if it rains.</li>
<li><b>Throw blanket</b> – Brighten up your room and furniture
by using your tapestry as a throw blanket. Switch them out every season
to reflect your favourite colours and designs!</li>
<li><b>Gift wrap</b> – Make a statement and give the gift that
gets remembered. How to do this? Place your gift in the center, pull
the corners together and tie.</li>
<li><b>Tablecloth</b> – A table can be a place for family and
friends to meet up to chat, share a meal, enjoy a board game, or a cup
of tea or coffee. What better way to express yourself than with a
tablecloth that is perfect for you. </li>

<em>For those whose walls and tapestries that can handle some holes: </em><br />
<ol>
<li><strong>Nails, push pins, and tacks</strong> – A staple (no pun intended) in most homes and dorms, nails and tacks can be a great way to hang your lightweight tapestry.</li>
<li><strong>Mounted on a wooden frame</strong> – With a bit of time and
effort you can stretch your tapestry over a canvas or wooden frame and
staple the tapestry in place. You can also use foam core in place of the
wood backing.</li>
<li><strong>Rod in casing</strong> – With a bit of stitching or the use
of a sewing machine, you can create a small casing in which you can
insert a wooden rod. You can then hang this rod from a picture railing
or hook.</li>
<li><strong>Hanging from the rafters (or ceiling)</strong> – you can
create a bohemian style room by nailing or tacking your tapestry to the
ceiling. Remember to allow the center of the tapestry to remain loose
and flowy to complete the look.</li>

I am very passionate about wildlife, our forests and rivers and our environment. I’m not sure whether us humans are all to blame for ‘global warming’ and
the strange weather patterns, because Mother Earth has her own natural
cycles of warming and freezing, but the mess that we humans make on this
planet is of major concern to me. Isn’t a beautiful landscape enough
incentive for each and every one of us to take responsibility for our
mess in order to preserve it….? </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Every time I have some moment on a seashore, or in the mountains, in the African bushveld or sometimes in a quiet forest, I think, "this is why the environment has to
be preserved."</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
So, if you're also passionate about nature and wildlife, head along to my <a href="http://www.redbubble.com/people/mareeclarkson/portfolio?asc=u" target="_blank">portfolio</a> to take a walk in nature and browse beautiful landscapes and animals and just to have some fun!</div>

<br /></div>
Whether you’re having trouble with procrastination, getting inspired, or settling on a proper creative routine, getting started is one of the most difficult parts of the artistic process and there are a few things that you should always consider, especially when selling your completed work on-line.<br />
<br />
From understanding your colour palette to being realistic about how long the job will take, I've laid out several bits of advice to think about before creating art.<br />
<br />
<b><span style="font-size: large;">Know your audience</span></b><br />
Before you even begin in the studio, make sure you have in mind who you’re making your artwork for. No one answer is correct, but having a general idea about the audience who consumes your stuff is a good way to stay focused and ensure you end up with an artwork which can be shown outside your studio. It’s okay if you purely make artwork for yourself, but perhaps you could also try and imagine other people (friends, colleagues, fans, children, etc.) that will love your art as well.<br />
<br />
<b><span style="font-size: large;">Have a self-imposed deadline</span></b><br />
This tip took me a long time to learn and was a valuable key to working faster and with better results. Having a self-imposed deadline created an environment with a small, healthy amount of pressure to work under. If I only allowed myself 8 or 20 hours to work on a piece, it became a restriction that lead to faster decision making and consistently fresh and spontaneous artworks.<br />
<br />
Try giving yourself a deadline to work towards on creative projects so that you can use that urgency to turn it into an energy which gives the artwork momentum. Momentum to finish it, momentum to share it, or momentum to continue promoting the work after you make it.<br />
<span style="color: #990000;">. </span><br />

<br />
<b><span style="font-size: large;">Choose your palette</span></b><br />
One of my favourite steps in creating a new collection of artwork is choosing a palette. Taking the time to plan out how your colours are going to work together creates a cohesive, finished look in your on-line portfolio. You can use software for this, but I prefer to get my hands dirty using paints, pencils, or hands-on tools of choice.<br />
<br />
If you choose a palette for new artworks, you can see your hard work pay off when all of the work is uploaded and you can see them complimenting each other by looking harmonious together.<br />

<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<b><span style="font-size: large;">Give the artwork the time it deserves</span></b><br />
Just as it’s important to set a deadline to make sure you propel yourself along, it’s really important to honour your artwork and give it the amount of time it needs. Don’t try and rush an ambitious new project, and realistically set aside the hours you think you will need.<br />
<br />
A freelancer friend recently said to me that I should plan a project to take “x” number of hours (let’s say 12 hours). Then I should add a third of “x” on top of the project time (another 4 hours) to allow for the unexpected things that occur when making new work. Giving yourself a third of the time you planned to polish the work if things go smoothly is also a relaxed and considered way to finish off creative projects. But remember, don’t be a perfectionist. It’s just as important to know when to say, “I’m done.”<br />
<br />
<b><span style="font-size: large;">Up-date your on-line profile page</span></b><br />
When you’re uploading new artwork, make sure you give it the best lease on life by including proper tags, description, and an appropriate title.<br />
<br />
<b><span style="font-size: large;">Bonus : Self-promote </span></b><br />
Think about how you’re going to spread the word about your new works.
Consider whether you can make a work in progress video to tease the work
to your fans. And make sure you have both your social media and
real-world marketing plans square because you want to make sure all this
work was worth trouble. <br />

The product train keeps on rolling with new additions to the women’s
line of apparel available on the Redbubble marketplace: and I present to you - the new <a href="http://www.redbubble.com/people/mareeclarkson/shop/graphic-t-shirt-dresses?ref=portfolio_product_refinement" target="_blank">Graphic T-shirt Dress</a>!<br />
<br />
<span class="product-info text-only">So you heard me right. A T-Shirt
Dress. With amazing art printed across the entire front panel, it’s
bold, comfy, and soft. It hangs just above the knee and is great for all
sizes and body types. Why settle when you can have it all? So check out all my <a href="http://www.redbubble.com/people/mareeclarkson/shop/recent+graphic-t-shirt-dresses?ref=sort_order_change_recent" target="_blank">T-shirt dresses here</a> and I'm sure you'll be as pleased with your purchase as I was with mine!</span><br />

<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-size: medium;"><span class="product-info text-only">PRODUCT INFO :</span></span></div>
<ul class="product-information_content">
<li class="product-information_detail">Graphic T-shirt dresses feature your chosen design, by an independent artist</li>
<li class="product-information_detail">Sublimation printed 96% Polyester/ 4% Elastane front panel</li>
<li class="product-information_detail">Solid colour 100% Cotton back/ sleeves/ rib</li>
<li class="product-information_detail">Loose casual fit</li>
<li class="product-information_detail">Graphic T-Shirt dresses are made and printed in the USA</li>

<span class="product-info text-only"></span>Like the <a href="http://www.redbubble.com/people/mareeclarkson/shop/mens-graphic-t-shirts?ref=artist_shop_product_refinement" target="_blank">Graphic T-shirts for men</a>,
the graphic t-shirt dress features full-bleed sublimation (there’s that
word again) across the entire front panel, with a solid black back
panel and sleeves, but in this case, this thing is a dress. You heard me
right. A T-Shirt Dress. With amazing art printed across the
entire front panel, it’s bold, comfy, and soft. It hangs just above the
knee and is great for all sizes and body types. So you totally don’t
need pants. Which is great, right? The front panel is made from 96%
polyester and 4% elastane, and the back panel is 100% cotton jersey that
comes in solid black. This product is big step in the women’s fashion
options that are available on the Redbubble marketplace.<br />
<br />
The t-shirt dress is a definitive piece in your
everyday wardrobe. This season, I'm bringing bold prints, colour and
fashion-forward cuts into the mix for an instant style upgrade that you
can wear anywhere. <br />

During the Cosmos season, which stretches from November to March here in

Out in the country, close by the roadside, there was a country-house. Certainly you yourself have once seen it. Before
it is a little garden with flowers and palings which are painted green.
Close by it, by the ditch in the midst of the most beautiful green
grass, grew a little daisy. (Read more by clicking on the link)</div>

If you take time to notice throughout your day, you will find that stickers are used for a tremendous number of reasons. Almost everywhere you look you’ll see stickers employed to decorate, advertise or communicate important information. Anyone trying to promote a business or organization should understand the usefulness of stickers in achieving their goals. Those who enjoy crafting and decorating will also love using stickers to brighten up and enhance any project, be it a photo album, a diary or journal or storage boxes.<br />

<b><span lang="EN-ZA" style="font-family: "verdana"; font-size: 10.0pt;">Creating Peace again... </span></b><br />
<br />
<span lang="EN-ZA" style="font-family: "verdana"; font-size: 10.0pt;">I've decided to simplify some parts of my life this week. We often create such complications and attach ourselves to so much stuff that it is very difficult for our light to shine through. And of course, with so much complication and so much attachment, we keep telling ourselves we have no time to be still and no time to nourish the talents and creativity which we have been given, no time to sketch and paint. Maybe next year... </span><br />
<br />
<span lang="EN-ZA" style="font-family: "verdana"; font-size: 10.0pt;">Yet, within us, we still hear our inner voice calling us "go on ... take another step ...". </span><br />
<br />
<span lang="EN-ZA" style="font-family: "verdana"; font-size: 10.0pt;">Sometimes we respond within ourselves "I will ...I will ... when I've enough time or enough money or know enough people or when I'm good enough or ..." and so on. It comes down to one thing, one simple step - make a committed decision. </span><br />
<br />
<span lang="EN-ZA" style="font-family: "verdana"; font-size: 10.0pt;">Once made, you begin to focus and the universe responds to help you. Ah, but you don't know where to start? If that's the case, it's time to simplify and create space. In that quiet, still space, listen to your heart. Let your heart guide your way and trust the guidance you receive. </span><br />
<br />
<span lang="EN-ZA" style="font-family: "verdana"; font-size: 10.0pt;">So, clear out the cupboard, the wardrobe, the shed, the computer, your studio, whatever - if you haven't used it or worn it for a year then give it to someone who will use it or wear it or chuck it out! Get rid of all unnecessary commitments, like too many blogs and subscriptions to too many newsletters. </span><br />
<br />
<span lang="EN-ZA" style="font-family: "verdana"; font-size: 10.0pt;">Make time and space for yourself - I dare you! </span><br />

The A-line dress<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
I’m very excited to announce the A-Line Dress, the first all-over printed product available on the RedBubble marketplace. The A-Line dress is a simple loose-fitting trapeze dress constructed of two all-over printed panels.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://2.bp.blogspot.com/-cPwTZ9aj1qs/V3M0vTMjYlI/AAAAAAAAp9A/4nKc2LVCFOAi5KjJFoxp9RMaHK0gAY3ZwCLcB/s1600/aline_dresses_blanks.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="293" src="https://2.bp.blogspot.com/-cPwTZ9aj1qs/V3M0vTMjYlI/AAAAAAAAp9A/4nKc2LVCFOAi5KjJFoxp9RMaHK0gAY3ZwCLcB/w400-h293/aline_dresses_blanks.jpg" width="400" /></a></div>
<br />
Made from lightweight, silky, woven polyester fabric, the A-Line Dress can be worn to events that require either casual or fancy-pants attire. Well, not actual fancy PANTS, per se. It is a dress after all. But you get the drift.<br />
<br />
Some full-bleed printed products like <a href="http://www.redbubble.com/people/mareeclarkson/shop/graphic-t-shirt-dresses?ref=portfolio_product_refinement" target="_blank">graphic t-shirt dresses</a> and <a href="http://www.redbubble.com/people/mareeclarkson/shop/contrast-tanks?ref=artist_shop_product_refinement" target="_blank">contrast tanks</a> are currently available, which is super cool, but the A-Line Dress is a bit different. Unlike the T-shirt dress and the contrast tank, the A-line dress is printed both back and front. <span style="line-height: 1.5;">This style makes for a great canvas to
showcase my artwork and has a loose and flowy fit to suit customers
from all over the world.</span><br />

I do a lot of painting and sketching from memory and from my imagination, but sometimes my Muse just doesn't want to play along. that's when I turn to nature for inspiration. <br />

Taking your sketch book outside or setting up your easel in the garden is a great way to stimulate inspiration - from the simple curve of a leaf to grasses gently blowing in the breeze, the topics are endless - the neighbour's rickety fence, a lonely sunflower, the puppy stretched out on the lawn, the sheen of the rooster's feathers as he struts by - all it takes is some imagination and seeing the beauty around you.<br />
<br />

<br />
The sea and coast holds a great fascination for most of us, and walking the beach can unearth the most wonderful treasures, from smooth glass to round pebbles, pieces of driftwood and, of course, the most collectible, shells. Unfortunately for these wondrous living creatures, this spells doom, as people will go to great lengths and pay hefty prices, for these little creatures, which results in the harvesting of a living infrastructure which will not last forever.<br />
<br />
And living proof of this is the fact that, walking the beach does not often turn up many shells, and in some areas, none at all. I have sketched some of my beach finds (from many years ago!), but nothing can portray the beauty of some of these as well as the living specimen.<br />

Watching the seagulls drifting on the breeze, ever keeping an eye open for a possible tit-bit, is one of my greatest joys. They effortlessly hover on elegant wings, alert eyes not missing a single move of anything on the beach or edge of the water. One such gull was hovering over me on my last visit to the coast, his beady eye a black pin-hole, staring straight at me, evaluating the possibility of another piece of bread being tossed up into the air.<br />

<br />
A simple fisherman's boat, brightly coloured on a calm stretch of misty water, can offer a startling contrast, one which caught my eye at Hartebeespoort Dam in the North-West Province (South Africa), not too far from where we live. It was early evening after the main rush of tourists and visitors had calmed down and the guy was gently drifting with the slow current, trailing his fishing rod. I asked my husband to stop the car and hurriedly did a quick sketch, noting the colours of the boat in the border of the sketch for later reference.<br />

Taking a walk in your garden or a nearby park can reveal real treasures of inspiration - I came upon this tree in a friend's garden and the play of light and shadow was fascinating. I had a bit more time to sketch this and could capture more detail.<br />

<br />
This might sound somewhat corny, but I believe with all my heart and soul that each one of us is born with a talent, and a destiny that will unfold in the most miraculous way when we honour and use that talent. Some might call it "finding their calling" or "discovering their purpose in life." I call it, "doing what you love to do and following your passion." Actually, they are all the same thing. Your calling and destiny are hidden within the precious desires of your heart. What an ingenious place to put it! All that is required is for you to look within and discover what gives you the greatest joy. <br />
<br />
A valuable question to assist you in this process is, "What would I do with my life if money were not an issue?" I’m not asking what would you buy for yourself, or what luxury trips you would take, but rather what would you "do" with your life. The key word is "do." What practices or activities bring you the most pleasure? Do you know why they bring you such pleasure?<br />
<br />
This might surprise you, but they bring you pleasure because the Universe/the Source wants you to do them. They bring us pleasure because nature wants us to use them. When we use them we gift many. How simple and yet revolutionary: your purpose in life, your destiny, your reason for living, your ultimate happiness, all come from following and trusting what you love to do. Quite ingenious.<br />
<br />
A couple of years ago I started setting up websites for myself - 2 for business and a few just for the love of it. I had no other motive than simply indulging myself in what had become my passion. There certainly was going to be no financial benefit in it, or so I thought. Little did I realize at the time that, by following this path, I would become a very successful web designer, writer of articles on many subjects and <a href="http://artandcreativitysalesblog.blogspot.co.za/" target="_blank">selling my art online</a>. It was my destiny to do this, and I only discovered it by chance because I followed and trusted what gave me the greatest pleasure. <br />
<br />
Not only is <a href="http://artandcreativity-maree.blogspot.co.za/" target="_blank">"Doing What You Love"</a> a key to personal fulfilment, it is more often than not the key to financial success as well. While I was writing articles and posting them to my various blogs and websites, I decided to send each of my financially successful friends (those with assets over a million) a notification of my doings so I could get their feedback. As I finished my list and was reading over the names, I suddenly realized that every single one of them had achieved their success in areas they enjoyed working in – one was in the security business, another was in air conditioning, one in law, still another in home renovating – and so it went. They had found their passion, devoted themselves to it, and had prospered. Every single one of them was doing what they loved doing. <br />
<br />
It got me thinking. Has anybody ever been tremendously successful doing what he or she dislikes? Sure you can make a living doing what you don’t enjoy, and many people do, but can you be tremendously successful? I thought about it for a while and you know what? I couldn’t think of anyone that I either knew or had read about in newspapers who was tremendously successful at doing something they did not enjoy doing. Not one. Something to ponder as we make our life choices. <br />
