Even the greatest successes begin as thoughts; as immaterial things. I like to think of my room as a sanctuary. A sanctuary/ bat cave/ fashion studio/ headquarters for world domination. Granted, sometimes it looks more like a train wreck than a luxury ride, but I think it is crucial to transform one's living place into an enclave of wonder. Everyone should have a nook to which they can escape, some place that is their own. It may not seem like it, but pursuing your ambition's can start by taking charge of your living space. Just like your clothing, music choice, and hobby interests, your home is a place where you can materialize your individuality. Take the ideas for greatness that bounce around in your head, and force them into your living space. Go from thinking them regularly, to seeing them everyday. Doing this takes your goals from daydreams, to something tangible. Reality is perception, so spice up your view...
My boyfriend and I LOVE home libraries. We don't have a house yet, so I have no where to build one, but I am going to start creating a mini one in my room. I long for the day when I can strut over to my chaise, silk-clad with my cup of tea, and perch by the afternoon light, to read in my library. My newest reading obsessions are comic books. Fiction novels and biographies are my favorite genres, but I really want to get into comics. All too often I've heard people say that America has no culture. Comic books are an American Institution, which have been emulated in countless countries across the globe since the emergence of Superman. Besides- superpowers are wicked cool.
Ask yourself who you are. What do you like? What makes you tick? If you come up short, try decorating your room. You'd be amazed at the extension of yourself that starts to unfold... Here are a few more amazing home libraries:
