I have failed.

A lot.

BIG TIME.

We all fail. We all fall short of what we have pictured, what we have wanted and where we have hoped ourselves to be in the present or future. However, as Einstein says,

“Failure is success in progress.”

So…my failure is progress? How is that possible? My failure is failure and it is what it is.

WRONG!

If we didn’t have failure, how could we ever learn from our mistakes? Think about that for a minute. I know I had to…

I started this blog with HUGE plans and aspirations to be an outlet for culinary knowledge and a way for me to actually write down what’s in my head. I wrote up business plans, planning sessions, started ACTUALLY writing down what ingredients I put into recipes and had this seemingly amazing plan that would launch me into something I am and have been so passionate about for 10+ years.

You know what?

I. FAILED.

HARD!

I reached out to friends and acquaintances to help spread the word about the revamp of this blog I had wanted soo badly and I FAILED.

You know what? I am DONE with failure!

I had to look deep inside myself and figure out what I really wanted and what I was truly passionate about. It took me losing my job, COVID impacts on the economy and a bout of deep depression to snap out of it and know my calling.

THIS. IS. IT.

I can no longer remain stagnant and wallow in my failure.

Dinner Thyme is COMING BACK!

This time, it’s for good.

I don’t have a date in mind at this time as I’m still working on a business plan that is planning to fail.

Why would you plan to fail?? That’s a horrible way to restart any business venture!!

1. I had aspirations of an amazing blog and business that would put me in a place I truly wanted to be. I FAILED.

2. Every plan I had, no matter how meticulously thought out, FAILED.

3. I have learned throughout my failures that the best way to plan is to ‘plan to plan’ but ALSO plan on those plans FAILING.

So here I am. Planning…again. But this time, I’m planning for what I want and also planning on what I don’t want – failure.

I’m still here. Stick with me. I, as well as this blog, am a work in ever-changing progress.

I am not my thoughts – I am what I do.

I embrace the uncertainty.

I am relentless.

I expect nothing and accept everything.

I am wired to win.

I GOT THIS!

XOXO – A ❤
