goatsSometimes you just have to go for it and seize and opportunity. Put aside your self doubt and remember that all you need to succeed in this world is already within you.
Do not doubt yourself, you’re more capable than you know

goatsNothing is ever or will ever be perfect, no matter how hard you try or how hard you work. That doesn’t mean working and trying isn’t worth it, absolutely it is! Although your creation may not be perfect, the more you put in the more glorious it will be.
Perfect is boring, a messy life is a life well-lived.

goatsSometimes, the best way to achieve happiness and contentment is to keep your expectations realistic. The less you expect, the more things will fill your being with joy.
Keep you expectations reasonable, this is a blog that brings you a goat everyday, and here is a goat.

goatsSometimes, the best strategy is to detach yourself from the gratification of achievement, but focus on the benefits of the work itself. If you focus too much on the end result, you might miss something amazing along the way.
It is ok if it takes awhile to complete a goal – enjoy the adventure!

goatsOne of the best things about the Goat of the Day blog is the friendly reminders that even in our fast-paced, technological-social-media-driven world, people are still keeping tabs on you. I was an early adopter of Facebook way back in 2005 and can say with confidence that I have personally met all 615 people who are my friends. Sometimes, friends that I have known ages ago who I otherwise would have lost complete contact with, send me messages with personal goat photographs. Today’s goats are one such picture, from a high school friend of mine, Tiffany. Tiffany was super cool and liked vampires and drove a Saab. She joined the army and we lost touch, but thanks to Facebook we’re able to keep tabs. Thanks Tiffany, for sending me a picture of two fabulous angora goats from Deanna Rose Farmstead in Overland Park, Kansas.
What a time to be alive!

UncategorizedOne day, someone made a series of decisions to bring you into the world. A world that is full of chaos, challenge and unspeakable difficulties. But someone decided that it would be worth it to give it a go and bring you, yes you, into this world. Along the way, there were many sacrifices and unknown mountains to climb. First they gave you part of their body and carried you, and then risking life and limb, they birthed you into the world. Then, in your most vulnerable state, that person cared for you. They fed you, clothed you, socialized you, read you loads of storybooks repeatedly, made sure you had the right toys at the right stages of your development, and poured over information about how to ensure that you would grow up to be the best possible you. You weren’t always grateful and it certainly was not always easy, but here you are.
If you are lucky enough to still have that someone in your life, make sure to call them up and say Happy Mother’s Day.
Thank you to all the moms, their hard work and unspoken sacrifices

goatsIf you ever find yourself wondering what the best solution to a problem is, the answer is to do whatever is kindest. You can never go wrong when you choose to be kind.
Kindness is a sustainable form of joy.

goatsIt is never too late to try something new. Although I have never been a particularly artistic person – my forte has typically been appreciating rather than creating art – in the past few years I have dabbled in some graphic design and graphic arts. I hope you enjoy my tracing of my favorite goat of all time, created with an IPad Pro and Procreate.
You are never to young to explore new talents and hobbies

goatsCuriosity makes your life more interesting. Even in the mundane, regular or routine there might be little details that totally change your perspective. Asking questions, exploring keeps your mind active and can open up whole new worlds.
