Hey folks! Welcome back
to the Path of
Positivity Challenge Blog! It is the third Monday of the month and that means that it is time to present the midway for Challenge #124. It is my fond hope that each of you and your own
families
continue to stay
happy, safe, and well, wherever it is you live in this big wide world of ours.
As we are a unique kind of challenge blog, it is important for you to understand how things work. Please be sure to check out the START POST FOUND HERE for the specific details related to this month's challenge, and you can find out all the general details you need to know in order to participate, by clicking on the 'Challenge Details' tab (located at the top of the blog). For your convenience, a summary of the most important rules can now be found in the right sidebar under the heading 'General Rules'.
Right now, it is time to continue with our midway. Here is a refresher of the details for our current twist:
Challenge #124
Anything Goes POSITIVE with the Opt. Twist of
The Power of Words:
GROWTH/CHANGE
If
you do want to follow the optional twist this month, here are the quotes I've chosen for Oct.:
“You’re off to great places, today is your day. Your mountain is waiting, so get on your way.” — Dr. Seuss
“One's destination is never a place, but a new way of seeing things." — Henry Miller
“If we don’t change, we don’t grow. If we don’t grow, we aren’t really living.” — Gail Sheehy
“If you always do what you’ve always done, you’ll always get what you’ve always got.” — Henry Ford
“If you always do what you’ve always done, you’ll always get what you’ve always got.” — Henry Ford
“You must be the change you wish to see in the world.” — Mahatma Gandhi
As you can see, the
overall theme for Oct. is GROWTH/CHANGE.
If you want to follow the optional theme, you can simply use one of the
quotes literally and type it out and add
it to your project. However, you could also create a project with one of
the quotes in
mind. For example, you could create a card for someone who is just
starting out in life using quote 1 as inspiration. You could create a
project using quote 4 as inspiration to help encourage someone to get
over a rut they are experiencing. There are lots of
ways you could approach the quotes. And of course, if none of these
inspires you, you can always find your own quote or sentiment expressing
the concept of GROWTH/CHANGE.
Remember,
the twist is completely optional and you don't need to follow it in
order to win. However, in order to be considered eligible for this
month's goodies, remember that general types of projects/posts will not
qualify for the honours and prize UNLESS they are also positive, inspirational,
motivational or encouraging in some nature. Additionally, even if a project may qualify as positive, if your post
promotes negativity, hatred or anything of an abhorrent nature, your
project will be disqualified. Honours and Prize include:
- $6 worth of images from Scribbles Designs, for a person chosen in a random draw based on all qualifying entrants.
- A badge for the following honours: Top Pick, Voter's Choice, Most Inspirational, Random Winner, DT Delight.
To help inspire you further down the path of The Power of Words: GROWTH/CHANGE,
check out the wonderful projects my Design Team had the opportunity to
create. Clicking on each team member's name will take you to their blog
where
you can check out the details for their inspirational creations.
Thanks again to my astounding design team! As always, each of them have
their own unique avenues of creation which I thoroughly admire. Each of
these designs has demonstrated the theme of The Power of Words: GROWTH/CHANGE splendidly,
and I hope we have motivated you throughout this challenge to come up
with your own work of handicraft. Be sure to go and visit these accomplished ladies so you can see just how their
projects tie in to the twist.
Why not join us, if you haven't entered already? Create a project and/or post that is positive, inspirational, motivational or encouraging in some nature and join our link up. How about stretching yourself by also opting to
follow the twist?! While it isn't mandatory, we'd also love to find out
how this month's twist affects your own life. How often do you rely on
words to inspire your creative endeavours? This month our quotes all
focus on GROWTH/CHANGE.
Are you doing anything special this month to work on your personal GROWTH/CHANGE
or to inspire someone else to do so? Change can be difficult but we
need to change in order to keep growing. Like the quote from Gail Sheehy says, “If
we don’t change, we don’t grow. If we don’t grow, we aren’t really
living.” None of us want to stagnate so think about some of the changes
you can make to keep growing, whether personally or creatively. They
don't have to be big changes, even small ones project us in a forward
momentum. You can write a sentence or two in the
body of your post, write a sentence at the bottom of your post
next to the link up for this challenge, or simply leave a comment on
this post if you'd like.
Also, I know that the participants would love for you to go and pay them a visit. Remember we're creating a Path of Positivity to follow one project at a time and we'd love to see you somewhere on that route even if it is just by leaving a comment on an entry from someone who has touched you somehow with their project and/or post! You can find our list of participants and enter our latest challenge yourself by clicking HERE and scrolling down to the bottom of the post.
