I got a new book yesterday from Cygnus books: "The Magic" by Rhonda Byrne, author of "The Secret". In this new book, she writes about the power of Gratitude, something that I have been consciously working on. Another book that has influenced me recently is "You Can Create an Exceptional Life" by Louise Hay and Cheryl Richardson.

 With my focus on positive thoughts and more importantly, feeling good, is it any wonder that life has taken a turn for the better?! In February this year whilst putting together a Steampunk costume for myself, I made a little hairclip. 'Oh,' I thought to myself, 'people might buy those'. I asked my brother if I could put them up for sale in his online shop Arcane Armoury   and he just said 'Why not make your own shop?' I almost heard the lightbulb go 'ding' above my head! So, I bought ten plain clips and a few feathers and ribbon, was given a few interesting beads and cogs and set to work. I also made a skirt and a couple of chokers.

 Everything is linked, I'm certain of it.(Like that series 'Touch!) Because of Etsy, I now have another home based business, as well as The Little Reiki Room and I am learning exactly what I needed to learn about selling and online marketing.Etsy has some excellent resources available. This is good for both businesses.

 Find my new shop here:The Navigatrix and a new blog to go with it here: http://thenavigatrixatetsy.blogspot.co.uk  You can also find me on Facebook (The Navigatrix) ant Twitter (Reikiblossom). I'm also beginning to be involved with Google+ and Pinterest.

 I am so happy to be once again expressing my creativity! More happiness and more gratitude lead to a happier life with even more to be grateful for! The trick will now be to keep the momentum going and forge new positive habits over time.

 I'd love to hear from others about your own personal evolutions...how's it going? Any tips, links, books you'd like to recommend?
