Just Try it! 

Writer: Gwendolyn J. JonesGwendolyn J. Jones

Wanted to share a little nugget of wisdom with you guys. When I was little my mother exposed me to EVERYTHING! I was in the gospel choir, I played the bells at church, I worked with the outreach team, I was in the youth ministry, various math and science programs and I was a cheerleader. I don’t think there is anything I didn’t do.

My mommy always told me, “it’s ok if you don’t like it, but you are going to at least try it!” So that’s my word for you today, straight from my mothers’ heart to yours! Try something new! You may not like it but how will you know if you don’t try. You can start small. Taste something different, try on a print that you wouldn’t usually wear, get yourself a new color lipstick! It’s the little things that make all the difference!

Reinvent yourself! Who knows, maybe something different is all you need to get your confidence back or to give you the confidence you need to pursue what’s next!

Oh yeah, did I mention before I found my passion, baking and cake decorating, I tried sooo many things. Gardening … EPIC FAIL! I went back to school to become an event planner, that didn’t work out. I could give you a long list of things that most would call failures. But I didn’t fail at all, I just learned what I wasn’t good at. If I never tried, how would I have known and now, I never have to wonder because I TRIED IT!!! So what’s it gonna be?? Can’t wait to hear all about it. I’m still trying and learning myself.

I dedicate this post to my Mommy Dearest!


I’m following her example, exposing my little ones to everything! Here is JJ, excited about his new tap shoes, he tried dance this year, taking tap and hip hop and he LOVES IT! If I didn’t make him try, He nor I would have never known.
