Hi, Hello, Howdie

It’s 2014. Sayyyy whaat!? Seriously? Where has the time gone? It feels like only yesterday that I was riding the bus with a pocket full of coupons and a head full of dreams. Wait a tick, that was yesterday. But in all seriousness, it’s amazing what a year can bring. Last year I was in a really dark place. Literally. My London bedroom didn’t have a window! I had very little money, no job and no safety net. And I never had a doubt that this was exactly where I was supposed to be. I don’t know where you are at, at this moment in time. If you are in a season of trial, transition or triumph. You might be reading this at your desk, on your smart phone, in a cafe in the big city or in an igloo in the arctic. I don’t know whether you are single or in a relationship. Sweet sixteen or ninety-two. You might be a guy reading this - welcome to our hood - sisterhood that is! Do I have it all figured out yet? Nope. Do I know what the future has in store? Not a chance. But I do know one thing: where you will be in twelve months time will be the result and product of the action and decisions you make now. Not tomorrow. NOW!

Why ‘Girl Got Game’?

Everyone needs a game plan. A starting point. A direction. And of course, as the year progresses you will need to be flexible and adapt to your personal circumstances. But we, at aliljoy.com, want to encourage you to start your journey with high expectations, enthusiasm, focus and passion. I started aliljoy.com because life is not easy. I’m sorry, but it’s not. It’s a massive ball-ache and it’s full of challenges, pain, disappointment, heartbreak, tears, PMT, failure and assholes. But don’t let the bastards get you down! There is creativity, colour, light, beauty, inspiration and love too. And when you know where to look, believe me, you will begin to see it EVERYWHERE. We are all average girls aspiring to lead beyond average lives, so let’s inspire each other and step...
