What is Midfield Moxie? It’s my football-loving description of the stage and mindset between the goal posts of life. Midfield--somewhere around the 50 yard line, more or less. Still spunky and sassy but with the advantages of experience and wisdom. Carefree in a new, caring-less-what-others-think-of-us kind of way. Where courage and confidence emerge, as striving takes the bench and contentment takes the field. A new attitude that allows us to become a more honest version of ourselves- to be brave, to be who we truly are (or always wanted to be), and to do what we’ve always dreamed. Self-assurance. Determination. Boldness. Moxie. Midfield Moxie. 

And that’s where I find myself. My bucket-list dream since high school English class has been to be a writer. Gracious. High school. So much yardage ago as I look back from midfield. Serious delay of game with that dream. But the game is not over! It may be 4th down but I’m going for it. I can do this! Time to stop punting, waiting for someone to make me a writer. Time to call an audible on my own number, tuck my dream and run. Run out of my comfort zone and into the end zone. Change the momentum of the game with a life changing drive that makes my dream a reality. Thanks to Midfield Moxie. 

And here we are. On my site, reading what I write (which, technically, makes me a writer!) Whistle blown. Ruling on the field for turning my dream into a reality? Touchdown!  Point after for content? The kick is up…we’ll see if it’s good.
