Hi everyone; it's Steph here from Art Tribe Creative
Like so many others in this tech hub that is Vancity I am an entrepreneur; having created Art Tribe Creative just under a year ago from my Stanley Park side studio.
Being an entrepreneur is tricky business; you wear a lot of different hats; but the most important chapeau of all is the one that helps achieve balance and inspiration.
Today I want to share with you how I entrepreneur and some super cool resources that inspire me every day.
I know meditation has a reputation for being something hippies and monks do, but it's honestly the backbone of balance for me.
Now I'm as ADD as the rest of us GenYer's so don't get me wrong, meditating does not have to be an hour long marathon, but a 5-10 minute daily ritual helps me stay focused, calm and clear headed.
I recently downloaded and the iphone app "breath" placing it in prime iphone real estate (replacing my e-mail)
It's fantastic and even rewards you with stickers, so you have to check it out.
The internet is a fabulous place to get inspired, linking us to artists and coaches world wide.
I subscribe to a number of newsletters and youtube channels that notify me via my e-mail inbox daily.
One of my favourite youtube channels is that of Marie Forleo, with fun and topical youtube video's weekly helping inspire creativity and productivity.
Who are you're online hero's?
Every entrepreneur needs a community, whether it's a small group of friends who meet monthly to chat about challenges, or a local organization that supports local entrepreneurs. I'm a member of a few of these communities, and being a female entrepreneur opens up even more doors- so if you are looking for some support I recommend you check out the links below.
WIB – Great resources and networks for women
FWE – A community of female entrepreneurs who put on workshops and network
Loco – A members only organization supporting local business and business owners
The Hive – A fab office space and great place to meet other like minded individuals
She Says ShopTalk – Epic pannel discussions to inspire creative entrepreneurs
Futurepreneur – A resource for entrepreneurs providing mentors and grants – I did my mentorship with them and got to be mentored by the fabulous Megan from Narrative Communications
Feisty Feast – Dine with like minded ladies and get inspired

For the feathered friends that come to my kitchen window.
Come to my window little bird.
Do not hesitate and go away.
Let my offerings satisfy your appetite
for a chance to gaze upon you in delight.
Take the nectar, seeds, and fruit.
Rest within the flowers planted beneath the feeder.
With curiosity, our eyes meet; yet do not be anxious little friend.
Let me hastily spy your beauty, before you quickly do ascend.
Come, little sparrow, bring all your friends,
the cardinal, blue jay, finch and dove!
Feed upon the gifts I give so that
I may look on you with love.
Let me hear the softness of your coo,
and the arrangements of your melodies.
Let me see the feathery plumes upon your head,
and your glorious wingspan as they spread.
Let me see the brilliance and luminance
of your green, violet, orange and red hues
then watch you flee away in flight
as my excitement you enthuse.
gently gliding across the sky,
you leave me filled with such joy.
Though you may take, you also give.

Meadow vase for grasses
'Meadow' has been designed to display grasses and thin stemmed flowers and is made from the same combination of materials used in other products in our range. The top portion is grey tinted concrete with sixteen holes arranged in a grid to hold the grass stems in formation. This sits in a glass Petri dish that rests on an oakwood base. This can be used for dry grasses or you can add water for plants that need a drink.
Meadow has come about as a result of work currently being done on a fan-assisted vase that would blow a gentle breeze through the grasses to replicate the movement you see in plants out of doors but rarely see in plant arrangements indoors. But Meadow looked so pretty even without the fan that I decided to release it as a product in its own right.
The things I particularly like about the way Meadow works is how the grasses appear to be growing out of a grate, or have broken through tarmac, how the natural forms of the grasses burst through the heavily constrained and formal concrete, how the dense block of man-made material floats above the water pool held in the gleaming glass dish, which itself rests on the softer organic oak base, playing with the notion of natural beneath the artificial, of heavy and rough over soft and light. I like the way the bottom of the stems protrude below the concrete seeking moisture and space and how these are visible sandwiched between the other materials. And I love the way the oak/glass/concrete sandwich looks with the colours and textures.
- Limited edition of 100
- 18 cm diameter, 6 cm tall
- Weight 870g
- Materials are oak wood, glass, hand dressed concrete and nylon feet
- 16 holes spaced as a grid to take plant stems
- Fan-assisted version to be released soon ('Meadow Breeze")
- Designed and handmade by Dan Morrison

I totally occupy seats when I'm just there to window shop for them and other people are trying them on but ofcourse, if I see someone there to try shoes on I'd totally give up my comfortable seat to them =P
wow. Didn't know you like so many different singers/bands. Yes, I already know how obsessed you are with The script =P
I hate shopping for shoes!!ReplyDelete
I usually join the group of guys sitting on the benches in the hallways of malls. You know the ones, you can tell they're bored out of their minds waiting for their girlfriends in one of the nearby stores.ReplyDelete
:| i do not appreciate such people either. such a wastage of energy and time for genuine *shoppers*. anyhoo....i am hung up on adele and some last latest hindi songs these days, and ah....i am watching *the IT crowd* and *True Blood* :DReplyDelete
I like shopping for shoes :) But the scenario you mentioned makes me want to throw somebody off the shop :DReplyDelete
Did you get some shoes ? :P
This happens here too. I mean what the hell is wrong with them? I hate trying shoes while standing cause it's like eating something with hands tied back. Tripping, i hate the tripping part that comes with trying on shoes while people look at you and keep sitting. >.<ReplyDelete
And I never listened to The Script that much. Maybe I should now. BreakEven was the only one i had one serious relationship with.
Gonna try Falling in cause Lifehouse is L.O.V.E. <3

You got a good blog, ima following you and hahaha your about me is like the bestest I've seen lol
What irritates me is when I claim a little bench on the end of an aisle in a shoe shop, then get up to get another size, come back, and find somebody sitting on the bench after moving my shoe boxes on the floor. Not cool.ReplyDelete
Love The Script and Nickelback--Gotta Be Somebody is one of my absolute favorite songs. Lifehouse is another favorite. :) Great music choices!!!!!
Sorry I was late to comment. You know the reason, i'm sure. Urgh, I can totally relate to the "shoe shop seats" thing and it's really hard fitting shoes standing up.ReplyDelete
I love Semisonic Closing time. I can live without music, but that doesn't mean I don't love it. I can just get on the day without listening to any. the songs I listened to, also depends on my mood.
Oh, I didn't know Vampire Diaries is back. I just downloaded episodes so, if i don't look up the internet, I wouldn't know the tv series I love to watch is back. thanks for the info. :)

This has not been very successful, I must admit. The idea was that students would read and think about the set content for each week and then email me a comment, question, query about something they don't understand or on which they would like more information. It worked okay at the beginning, then dropped off, made a short comeback and then disappeared. I did not want to make it attached to a mark as I was told students don't need a mark for everything to collaborate and it means more individual assessment items when the faculty wants it limited to 3. However, it is affecting tutorial interactiveness since I am increasingly talking and filling up the space. I am thus switching tack to what I did last year: students each summarise a set reading and present it in class and send me the summary, which will be loaded up to a commonly accessible link on the WordPress site for pre-test study at the end of the semester. However, I am going to get 3-4 students to tackle the weekly readings and themes as a collective "package": they will divide the weekly pre-class content readings labour and take charge of half the tutorial on that week's theme, summarsing not only the readings but also the online lecture. We will experiment with this for the rest of the semester and I will survey them again. One issue will be: will the groups they are currently in to do their cultural case studies (just submitted last week), be the same? If not, I need to form different groups and student may not like the idea of having to join 2 different groups (even if one is for one week) and communicating outside the tutorial. In addition, I will have to give them a mark, which will make 4 assessment items, when we are supposed to limit it to 4 in the faculty. Hmm. Let's see… Mid-semester Survey Monkey results are coming on. Summary and analysis to follow soon.
Testing pre-class learning – re-think needed

Techniques of Locating a Professional Commercial Photographer
When you have a need of finding a professional commercial photographer, there are many methods you can use. Below are some of the major search techniques which you could try. Read more great facts on
wedding photography,
click here.
You are almost sure of finding local photographers when you check the local company directories. In case you live in a very remote area, you may need to search a bit further. Due to the proliferation of internet directories that generally end up being less fruitful, most specialist commercial photographers prefer not being listed in paid printed directories. Hence, you have to search online so as not to miss these photographers.
You'll discover a wealth of specialist photography directories and much more generic business directories. The great ones will offer a useful link to this photographer's home page that is an important advantage over the published directories. Much like the printed directories, always attempt to narrow your search to just consist of professional commercial photographers or else the majority of those results will probably likely be family portrait and wedding photographers. It is a convenient search method if it is done well. For more useful reference, have a peek here
The major search engines will be sure to offer you a comprehensive list of local photographers. As done in most of the searches, to limit your search to include commercial photography, then you need to look for industrial photographers on where you are. If that isn't effective, consider replacing your location with a huge town or neighboring city. Do not make the error of just clicking on the paid listings, or for that matter just clicking on the links on the first page. Just because photographer invests plenty of cash to be listed number one on a big search engine doesn't make them the perfect person for your job.
You may get some practical information on all the parts of finding and commissioning photography from the majority of the professional photographic bodies functioning in your local area. Know that although those photographers prefer to be a part of those clubs and associations, many don't. It is not because they are not acclaimed or professional in their field, but because they just do not feel comfortable with these memberships. Being a member of those bodies doesn't ensure reliability, quality or some other professional code of behavior; it simply demonstrates that the photographers in their membership register to its principle. Hence, do not ignore or be unconvinced by the non-members.
Word of mouth is still a powerful marketing method for any company and one you could utilize in case you are looking for any local trade. You can ask someone for a recommendation and ask as many questions as you can. You can also view the imagery of the photographer by going through the portfolio component of the site. Please view this site
for further details.

India's Defence ministry has a new leader in Nirmala Sitharaman as the countries First Full time Women Defence minister. The only other woman leader who lead the defence ministry was the late Prime Minister Indira Gandhi who kept the defence portfolio during her government rule.
With this promotion, Nirmala Sitharaman now automatically becomes part of the powerful Cabinet Committee on Security (CCS). Sitharaman who was earlier Minister of State of Commerce leapfrogged other senior Cabinet members to get the Defence portfolio.
Sitharaman takes over the charge from Jaitley who clearly seemed overburdened by the additional charge of Defence and would be more than happy to hand the post over to the new in charge. This appointment is a short in the arm for Womens empowerment and signals PM Modi's strong intent to shake up the system and allot portfolios based on performance rather than only name credibility.
The defence ministry does require strong leadership and this elevation clearly shows the faith & support that the Prime Minister has for Sitharaman. With the growing border conflicts with Pakistan & China and the threat of terrorist infilteration, only time will tell if Nirmala Sitharaman will be ready for the challenges and responsibilities that come along with this portfolio and repose the faith people have on her. We at Guysworld wish her the very best in her new role as Defence Minister.

Ms. Charlie K. Widner, CDM/CFPP, has come a long way from picking tomatoes out of her family garden in Indiana to embarking upon partnering with Willits Charter School as Food Service Director/Culinary Arts Instructor.
Her career path as an electronic technician changed dramatically with a manufacturing plant closure in Western North Carolina. NAFTA, North American Free Trade Agreement, financed her culinary education and in 1996, she graduated with honors from Asheville Buncombe Technical Community College with an AAS in Culinary Technology.
Upon graduation, Chef Widner was offered a job at the prestigious Ritz Carlton, Amelia Island, Florida, a 4-star 5-diamond restaurant. Exposure to chefs and foods from all over the world expanded her knowledge of food and the hospitality industry.
Wanting to return to the mountains and fulfill a passion to educate people of all ages about food, in 1997 Chef Widner became Education and Catering Director of A Cook's Gallery. A year later, she continued her path of sharing her culinary skills and became a Culinary Arts Instructor at Asheville Buncombe Technical Community College. Chef Widner taught all aspects of culinary and hospitality education, inclusive of safety and sanitation, knife skills, cooking techniques, batch cooking and plate presentation. She has touched the lives of many through culinary education and hands on mentoring.
With a burning desire to own a café, the Tomato Jam Café was born in 2005. The Jam fulfilled a much needed local organic farm to table food venue to health conscious customers. Her whole wheat "Cat's Head Biscuits" were recognized by Roadfood's Michael and Jane Stern in their book 500 Things to Eat Before It's Too Late: And the Very Best Places to Eat Them as the Best Biscuits in the South. The cafe was sold in 2010 to move the Widner family across country to be closer to in-laws and extended family in Northern California.
Ms. Widner was recruited for the Food & Beverage Director of a 300 resident Retirement Community in the Bay Area. During this time, with constant studying and attending on-line classes and conferences, Ms. Widner achieved her Certified Dietary Manager/Certified Food Protection Professional credentials. Ms. Widner established policies and procedures, taught and trained employees, developed cyclical menus and trained and instructed staff for preparation of menus, ordered all F&B food and supplies maintaining continuous inventory and was held accountable for all financial spend downs for all departmental accounts and payroll.
For balance and to build upon sense of self and community, enjoy and spend more time with her family, Ms. Widner is very excited to bring and share her culinary skills with the students and staff of the Willits Charter Schools.

|Authority in the Church
|Related Phrase: positions of authority in the church
|When this power which God has placed in the church is accredited to one man, and he is invested with the authority to be judgment for other minds, then the true Bible order is changed. Satan's efforts upon such a man's mind will be most subtle and sometimes overpowering, because through this mind he thinks he can affect many others. Your position on leadership is correct, if you give to the highest organized authority in the church what you have given to one man. God never designed that His work should bear the stamp of one man's mind and one man's judgment.- - 3T 493. (See 9T 260, 261.) {PM 129.3}
|The Thessalonian believers were greatly annoyed by men coming among them with fanatical ideas and doctrines. Some were "disorderly, working not at all, but . . . busy-bodies." The church had been properly organized, and officers had been appointed to act as ministers and deacons. But there were some, self-willed and impetuous, who refused to be subordinate to those who held positions of authority in the church. They claimed not only the right of private judgment, but that of publicly urging their views upon the church. In view of this, Paul called the attention of the Thessalonians to the respect and deference due to those who had been chosen to occupy positions of authority in the church. {AA 261.3}
|How often, in our own day, is the love of pleasure disguised by a "form of godliness!" A religion that permits men, while observing the rites of worship, to devote themselves to selfish or sensual gratification, is as pleasing to the multitudes now as in the days of Israel. And there are still pliant Aarons, who, while holding positions of authority in the church, will yield to the desires of the unconsecrated, and thus encourage them in sin. {CC 97.5} and {PP 317.2}
|The salvation of children depends very much upon the course pursued by the parents. Children must be restrained and their passions subdued, or God will surely destroy them in the day of his fierce anger, and the parents who have not controlled them will not be blameless. Especially should those who have authority in the church of God govern their own families, and have them in subjection. They are not prepared to decide in matters of the church unless they can rule well their own house. {RH, September 2, 1884 par. 3}
|Aaron's failure to be true to his trust brought the rebuke of God upon him. Had he been steadfast, God would have shielded him from harm. We have compliant Aarons in our day, those who hold positions of authority in the church and who coincide with an unconsecrated people and thus lead them to sin. They expose themselves and the people to the wrath of God. However much Aaron excused himself, God regarded him as the principal agent in this terrible transgression. Here is an example traced by the pen of inspiration, in the pages of sacred history, as a lesson to all ministers and those who are in responsible positions, that they should in no case imitate the example of unfaithful Aaron. We have in these last days, as much occasion to tremble with fear at the will of God, as the Israelites had when they stood at the foot of the mountain. {ST, May 20, 1880 par. 9}
|Here are lessons which God's people at the present day should take to heart. There are grievous sins indulged by individual members of the church,--covetousness, over-reaching, deception, fraud, falsehood, and many others. If these sins are neglected by those who have been placed in authority in the church, the blessing of the Lord is withheld from his people, and the innocent suffer with the guilty. The officers in the church should be earnest, energetic men, having a zeal for God, and they should take the most prompt and thorough measures to condemn and correct these wrongs. In this work they should act, not from selfishness, jealousy, or personal prejudice, but in all meekness and lowliness of mind, with a sincere desire that God may be glorified. Inhumanity, false dealing, prevarication, licentiousness, and other sins, are not to be palliated or excused; for they will speedily demoralize the church. Sin may be called by false names, and glossed over by plausible excuses and pretended good motives, but this does not lessen its guilt in the sight of God. Wherever it may be found, sin is offensive to God, and will surely meet its punishment. {ST, January 20, 1881 par. 16}
|Organized authority in the Church
|When this power which God has placed in the church is accredited to one man, and he is invested with the authority to be judgment for other minds, then the true Bible order is changed. Satan's efforts upon such a man's mind will be most subtle and sometimes overpowering, because through this mind he thinks he can affect many others. Your position on leadership is correct, if you give to the highest organized authority in the church what you have given to one man. God never designed that His work should bear the stamp of one man's mind and one man's judgment.- - 3T 493. (See 9T 260, 261.) {PM 129.3}
EXPLANATORY NOTE - - [The opinions in this document were expressed by Ellen White at a time when only a small group represented the General Conference. After the General Conference was reorganized in 1901 to provide broad representation, Mrs White took a different view. At the 1909 General Conference she encouraged strong support for the General Conference. At that session she said: "AT TIMES, WHEN A SMALL GROUP OF MEN ENTRUSTED WITH THE GENERAL MANAGEMENT OF THE WORK HAVE, IN THE NAME OF THE GENERAL CONFERENCE, SOUGHT TO CARRY OUT UNWISE PLANS AND TO RESTRICT GOD'S WORK, I HAVE SAID THAT I COULD NO LONGER REGARD THE VOICE OF THE GENERAL CONFERENCE, REPRESENTED BY THESE FEW MEN, AS THE VOICE OF GOD. BUT THIS IS NOT SAYING THAT THE DECISIONS OF A GENERAL CONFERENCE COMPOSED OF AN ASSEMBLY OF DULY APPOINTED, REPRESENTATIVE MEN FROM ALL PARTS OF THE FIELD SHOULD NOT BE RESPECTED. GOD HAS ORDAINED THAT THE REPRESENTATIVES OF HIS CHURCH FROM ALL PARTS OF THE EARTH, WHEN ASSEMBLED IN A GENERAL CONFERENCE, SHALL HAVE AUTHORITY. . . . LET US GIVE TO THE HIGHEST ORGANIZED AUTHORITY IN THE CHURCH THAT WHICH WE ARE PRONE TO GIVE TO ONE MAN OR TO A SMALL GROUP OF MEN." -- Testimonies, Volume 9, page. 260, 261. See futher The EARLY ELMSHAVEN YEARS, By A. L. White, page 75-94, 108-110.] {17MR 169.1} {17MR 176.1} {17MR 180.1} {17MR 195.1} {17MR 207.1} {17MR 215.1} {17MR 220.1}

text: Most of us have been taught that fear is a problem to be overcome. Especially in the some of the spiritual community, fear is basically the F-word. It is the enemy. It keeps us from having what we want. It makes us live from what's called the "lower self" rather than the so-called "higher self." But fear, like all of our other emotions, just has a message to deliver. And in some cases that message can literally save our lives. Beyond that it can also be a warning bell, a determiner of the next step, an informational email to allow us into our shadow material—and therefore a consciousness
