Description

There’s no doubt that 2020 has been a hectic year. So much has happened that is out of my control. I can’t control Covid-19, I can’t control lockdown, I can’t control the direction that the world is going in. It sometimes feels as if there is nothing I can do. But, there are some things I can control – my dreams and ambitions. Just the exercise of thinking about the future and what I want to achieve gives me energy and motivation.

My dreams get me up and going and they guide me. Sometimes dreams change, and sometimes they need to be put on hold. Sometimes a totally different dream comes along. That’s OK! One thing is for certain, my dream for a better world for our readers is what keeps Supernova magazine going and growing and I’m so happy to share my dream with you.

Stay safe, keep dreaming and always be curious!
