Dream On and On and On

Today while on pinterest, which is nothing uncommon since I spend way to much time on that site, I found an inspirational quote that got me thinking. "Have big dreams, you'll grow into them" were the words I found. I have often times joked with my mother over the fact what she bought all my clothes big always telling me "you'll grow into them". I always reply with "how big do you expect me to get" and now looking back I tell her "they still are too big to this day". But after finding that quote I realized dreams and clothes are very similar, they have potential. If you buy a shirt for a kid so that it fits them it'll look nice but in a year or less they will most likely have grown out of it and then it serves no purpose. But if you buy it a little bigger, that shirt that they love in the store will be one that they can wear for much longer. The same goes for dreams. If we set limits to our dreams they will never have the potential to make anything of them. We will one day wake up and realize we out grew the dream because it wasn't big enough. It is best to dream big and think of extravagant thoughts and ideas that you can't get out of your head because one day you'll want to make those dreams a reality. The best minds that we know in the world today are those that took their wild and crazy dreams that everyone said were crazy and could never happen and made success out of them. This does not limit YOU. YOU have the potential to be anything you want, and to do anything you want. Start dreaming big because one day you'll dream so big that you'll make it happen no matter what it takes.

Save On Your Online Shopping!

Hey everyone! I want to let you all know about this awesome website that I use for my online shopping. It's called Ebates.com. It allows you to do online shopping at your favorite stores through their website and receive cash back on your purchase! It's super easy to sign up and doesn't cost anything... which is great for us girls on a budget. You find the stores you want to shop at on the Ebates site and then they track your shopping and purchases and give a certain percentage of your order back to you in a check! It's super easy and definitely worth it! If you do your holiday shopping online it's a really great way to save some extra money... so you can give that special present to yourself that you've had your eyes on for months!
