Knowing Where to Start...

I want to Create
               I want to Learn
    I want to Build something from the bottom up
                         To Know, To Discover, To Chance, To Try
I want to take things that already exist
                                                    Things that people already know
          And Learn from them

Do things I've never Done
                        Try things I've never Tried
             Explore, Imagine

There are so many things I don't know
      I've never Experienced

I want to Learn as much as I can
                    Drink in other people's Knowledge
                                                               Expand on their Creativity

I have an image of Who I want to Be
           Things I want to Do
           Where I'd like to Go

                         I want to be a Designer
                                 a Creator
                                 a Learner
                                 a Traveler
                                 a 'proper' Lady
I want to waltz around in high heels       Loving the world to perfect health

                                                  The biggest problem is the Start

I'd rather just jump into the middle
            Already Knowing
                           Already Ready
    And let the                 Momentum                take me

            But momentum has to be Built
And floating along isn't going to get me anywhere
                                       The key is the Drive
Pushing past the frustration that becomes the obstruction
                                                             (which makes me wish I was slightly more competitive)

I'm learning that
                                      Creativity
                                                                 is actually easier within Structure
                                                                                             within Discipline

Mediocrity is just as close to the Bottom as it is to the Top

It's the Start
           I've always hated the Start
                           of Anything
                  of Everything

I want to Learn
            I want to Learn
                        I want to Learn
                                    I want to Learn!

Learn What?
                            Start Where?
          How?    When?

     When?
And then there's Time
                        GAH Time!!
                 There's never enough Time
                                                                                                                 (As is money!)

What to Read?
           Where to Look?
                        Who to Go to?
       HOW TO START?

The Challenge (and Thank-you to Bobby Houston for this one):
                               Not to Despise the Day of Small Beginnings.
   Day 1
