zHello friends and family!

What if you only had 6 months to live? What would you do with your time?

(Pause here and take a few minutes to think about what you would do)

I thought I would kick start this week's issue with a bang! haha So how's your Wednesday going now? We are heading into the second half of the year and I hope you are taking steps towards the life you want to live. 

A super loud

hello and welcome

to the new subscribers. Thank you for joining us on this weekly adventure for a

Dose of Inspiration

and tips to 

Create A Life You Love and Go Live It

. 

The theme of this week is "Testing Goals".  

I did my review for the first half of the year and the main question was what is the one thing to focus on that will have the biggest impact. I have been running testing goals for the last year and a half. I tested out business coaching, life coaching, surprise business, online workshops, events, and different roles and projects in the company where I work in. 

Running these testing goals gave me a chance to learn new skills, try out new ideas, fail miserably, learn what I love and what I hate, and most importantly bring me closer to what I want to do. 

Oh yes, I forgot this newsletter - this was a testing goal that turned into a lifetime project because it brought me immense happiness! 

As we get older we tend to get stuck in doing things in a certain way and sticking to things we are good at. But what would happen if you tried something new? 

Task for this week: 

• Write down a list of 10 things you want to try. 

• Now pick one. 

• Set a deadline (for example 3 months) 

• Now set time weekly to learn the skills needed for this and test it out. 

• Challenge yourself to do it for the full 3 months. 

• At the end of these 3 months - do a review and see if this is something you want to continue. 

💫 You never know where your next great love will come from, I found mine in a Dose of Inspiration. 

Remember each week, we are just moving one tiny step forward to creating a life you love.

Artists Who Inspire 

 Artist: Catherine Marion 

I found the prettiest art on Instagram! Meet Catherine (aka

Folklore and Flora)

from New Zealand.  She is a folklore artist. 

Until I found her I had no idea this type of artist existed. I love that this newsletter is bringing me new knowledge from the world.

She creates beautiful nature pieces and now turns them into wallpaper. Yes, she makes me want to settle down and get a house so I can add a wall of her designs to my daily life.

Song of the week 

Okay, I feel so late to this party!Harry Styles is such an incredible artist. I have been binging his latest album and I am now a fan. He reminds me of a mix of Jamaroqui, Bruno, and Anderson Paak...mixed with something else. For this one...headphones on and turn it up. Enjoy this live version. (oh and the drummer is a woman ...heaven!) 

Before I forget - a big thank you to @0melapics for the Tribal design that inspired this branding.
