About Me

My photo
Ashley Connor is the name. Freelance writing is my game. I have a bachelors degree in Journalism from Clarion University of Pennsylvania |S/O CU c/o 2009| -- It's now 2014 and my life has truly taken it's own path. I've learned through everything you can't always plan your next move but whatever the move is make it your best. In this day and age it's all too often we focus on what's "Hot" instead of what has been, what is and what will be. I have a lot of projects I am currently working on and while I continue to make my way I always have this blog, a place to keep me grounded in the woman I am continuously working to be. I was here.

This thing called, LIFE!

I'm excited!

About what?

Well my future of course! I have a lot of things going on in my life right now and as I have said before I know that God is truly guiding my steps. Things have been going great at work and I feel a lot of progress with everything I am doing. This weekend is going to be BIG. I'll be finishing up my new resume tape and pumping it out to TV stations all over the place.

My hunger for success is only growing and I am working hard continuously to make sure I don't lose sight of what the BIG picture is. It's amazing how God moves in my life and the people he has introduced me to in 2011. Most people that know me, know that I am not too open to just meeting random people and calling them my friends and forming a relationship with them outside of my work environment or wherever I come in contact with people at. What God has done to change my perspective with new people I come across is amazing. He knew what I needed. I'm where I am at today because this is what he has for me. Realizing that I am being prepared for something that I have no clue what it is makes me even more focused. I am open and ready to accept whatever is to come. I don't know when or how but I have faith that it's coming and God never lets me down.

The fact that it is December already is wild! This year flew by so fast... and from what I hear it only goes faster. This May will be three years since I graduated from Clarion and in June it will be seven since I graduated high school. Where did the time go? Those time frames right there are reason enough to make sure EVERYTHING I do has purpose and is getting me closer to my ultimate goal. I re-tweeted a tweet from a friend that said, "When things don't add up in your life, start subtracting". In 2011 I did A LOT of subtracting, I can't say that it was easy or I am done but the progress that I made this year was necessary and I couldn't be more at peace with life and the decisions I made.

My journey is far from over but I have to say the process is trying, scary and confusing but I'm learning every step of the way. I constantly evaluate the things I do in life and writing this blog has been a tremendous amount of help. I occasionally read through different blogs just to remember and learn from moments that I have had so far. Although things have been going good it take one second for things to go bad. I know it's going to happen and I welcome the bad times too.

I wouldn't be the person I am today if I didn't go through the things I have gone through.
