Resourcefulness is the Ultimate Resource

I LOVE this quote by Tony Robbins: "Resourcefulness is the ultimate Resource."


This helps me to understand that with our small businesses, if we think we lack resources, that outlook can shift if we learn to cultivate Resourcefulness! Think about how kids create whole worlds from very little resources (like this sweet fairy house our littlest daughter Gwen built). Let's become inspired with how creative we can be and reinvent & invigorate our business model. There are many studies of entrepreneurs who have changed their lives in this way in Chris Guillebeau's books: The Happiness of Pursuit & The $100 Startup. Filled with inspiring stories of people who have changed their lives by following personal quests and turning their "resourcefulness" into business "resources." Check em out!

And to finish this post, here's Tony Robbin's Three "S's" for business:
1: Create a "Strategy"
2: Cultivate the right "Story" (Divorce the stories of the past that are limiting our growth and marry an Empowering Story that empowers us to Act. The glue that holds our businesses together is our Story.)
3: Be mindful of our "State": with personal and spiritual awareness, self care, relationships, inspiration, motivation, and the ability to manage a mindset that allows us to find an empowering meaning to whatever life gives us.
    - Thank you as always - Anthony Robbins!

RELOVED Magazine & Dreamy Cashmere

Excited to have a little snippet about REVERIE Textiles in the UK Print magazine RELOVED the Creative Guide to Upcycling Your Home.


I love this magazine, it's packed with classy DIY projects of all sorts for making style statements with upcycled decor. My hope for REVERIE Textiles has been that my cashmere designs inspire a "wow" factor for kids' decor.

Thank you Sinead for contacting me for this spotlight and for spreading the love of upcycling!
