Why resources?
I love the above picture. It fits so perfectly with the topic of this post, which is how resources fit into developing a strategy for designing a hobby or life that you love.
Resources are another one of the puzzle pieces for any goal or decision; they will help you to reach the big kahuna, the final product. A resource is all about new ideas and concepts, stuff that you reallllly want to learn about.
My example: starting a blog
When I first decided that I wanted to start a blog, I had no clue what I was doing. But I also knew that I wanted a blog. I knew I had stuff to say and that I had to get it out there. I didn't even know where to start. Fortunately, there were plenty of resources out there that I could turn to for help such as other blogs, books, audio, online businesses, you name it.
I learned the difference between blogging platforms, the importance of an editorial calendar, and about how to find my voice. I also learned what copywriting is and where I can go for help. All of these resources helped me in my strategy to start this blog.
Blogging has been immensely fun for me and I am thankful for all those who came before me for helping me in my journey :)

What are your resources?
Chances are that you already know which resources you love to use in your life but I want you to think about it a little more.
Are you an avid blog follower? Do you love reading books every evening? Do you like reading the paper in the morning? Do you follow vlogs on YouTube?
I encourage you to use more than one kind of format (book magazine, online, etc.) to help give you multiple perspectives.
The next post in this series will give you information on how to organize your resources as you find them so that it all doesn't get overwhelming.
Thank you for reading and until next time :)
