LaCresha's Lens Focuses On...Page 13...Decisions

I am getting overwhelmed, I have taken on this fitness challenge.  I thought we would be at the gym maybe an hour...I think we were there for three hours.  As much as I want to take on this challenge, I don't have the time to work out for three hours.  Hopefully this is just the beginning of the challenge where there is high energy and enthusiasm, and it will settle down after a couple of weeks.

This Friday I meet with my writing mentor and I am frustrated as the binder I have put together is at the house where I was house sitting in December.  I would really like to have it with me when I meet with my mentor.  Since I do not I want to focus on what I hope we can cover, I think it will be the process to submit articles and stories.  Once I can get this information, I am hoping I can at least begin the process and steps of getting published.
I believe another aspect of our meeting Friday will be narrowing down my writing subjects.  Unfortunately, I have a lot of interests and varied experiences.  Some of the subjects that I am interested in possibly writing about are: farming, horses, music, dance, photography, travel, home interior, (not even sure where that comes from), local fashion, models, designers and boutiques. 

Along with preparing for my meeting Friday, I am also needing to prepare for my photoshoot on Sunday.  This is a paid shoot, which is always a good thing.  It is for headshots, and I am a little nervous as the client is a little heavier than what I am use to shooting.  So, I need to be on my A-game for posing and making sure she looks her best.  Thank you, God for allowing Caitlin to be doing the make-up and Miss E for allowing me to use her studio/apartment and assistance.  I know it will be a good shoot and I believe things will go well.  I am probably putting more pressure on me than I need to, however, this needs to go well.  This is one of 50 photo sessions I need/want to book this year.  If this goes well, and the client is pleased, it is step one of the hope of "word of mouth marketing".  I don't know who she knows, but the manner she will be using the images has potential of a lot of exposure.  If she is pleased with the work, then she will speak well of me. 
If I can get 50 sessions booked this year, then it will show that I am doing something right which will help me do 100 sessions in 2016.  Not an easy task, but to be able to work for myself, it will be all worth it.
