"If You Build It, They Will Come." Thank YOU for Coming to the POSH PR® Christmas Party!
A look back at the POSH PR® Christmas party with The Caroline Doll, CEO of POSH PR®!
“If you build it, they will come.” Yes, this quote is from the movie, “Field of Dreams.” Yes, it’s about baseball. No, I’ve never actually seen it. But, I’ve lived it.
I do know that the movie is about a man who had a vision of a baseball field being in his back yard. He kept hearing the phrase, “If you build it, they will come.” He moved forward in uncertainty, building his dream, and the baseball players came.
On the way to our POSH PR® Christmas party at Quirk Hotel Monday night, I couldn’t believe I was driving to go meet two of #theprdolls who work for POSH PR®, to set up for a party of 60+ POSH PR® clients, friends, and family. Four years ago, I had my first POSH PR® Christmas party in my tiny little house. Now, I needed an entire hotel lobby!
Four years ago, I really didn’t know what I was doing. But I know I had a desire in my heart that I needed to listen to. There’s something to those little nudges from the heart. The more you start listening to them, the more frequent they become, and the louder they get. Another example of a pang I’ve listened to recently? Moving away from the wedding planning side of things and more toward the PR and branding side. I LOVED wedding planning because it was a secure thing I KNEW how to do. Right when I was getting comfortable in that, God swept the rug from under my feet and pointed me in another direction! Now I work with more brands than brides and am to the point where I have to think if we can take on another client!
I truly do believe that the deepest desires of our hearts are from God. He has BIG things in store for us, and wants so badly for us to choose THAT life, a life bigger than any one of us could ever create on our own terms. I actually think life is a series of God telling us to go out and build it, to have faith in His promise.
“Faith is like WiFi. It’s invisible, but it has the power to connect you with what you need.”
Faith is trust in what you cannot see. It’s also a form of relinquishing control, in a sense, firmly believing that you CAN’T do it all, you CAN’T control it all — that’s impossible!
I’m getting to the point where I get more excited than apprehensive when another one of those desires start growing. All of the times I’ve built upon one of those desires, they have come! Thank YOU for coming to the best POSH PR® Christmas party, yet!
