…but i’m also kinda okay

Feelings change like the wind.

Always in motion.

Intentionally temporary.

Meant to be experienced, accepted, and ultimately let go. 

You’re not sad. You feel sad.

You’re not happy. You feel happy.

You’re not angry. You feel angry. 

The key idea being that you are more than your feelings because YOU are not temporary. 

The you beneath your feelings is permanent.

let’s talk about cultivating inner peace

Peace is not the absence of conflict.

It’s a state of being. 

It’s the understanding that we are all connected

and that our actions have an impact on others.

It’s acknowledging that bad things will happen.

but remembering that we have the opportunity to decide how we respond. 

It’s believing that the best way to find harmony 

is to live in alignment with our values

Cultivate peace within yourself first 

and it will radiate outwards, 

creating a more peaceful world.

Here are a few reasons why you may need a reset

And just so we’re clear: Your life doesn’t need to be in shambles to need a reset. Sometimes you need to slow down and evaluate how things are going and make some tiny adjustments to build the life you love.

01. You’ve been running on autopilot.

Going through the motions of your day-to-day life; Instead of actually experiencing it.

02. You’ve been slacking on taking care of your physical and mental health.

That self-care routine only works if you’re willing to follow through.

03. You’re stuck in a negative thought pattern.

No matter what you do, you can never see the glass half full. It feels too hard to see the opportunity and joy that life has to offer.

04. You don’t have work/life harmony.

Maybe you feel like your life is all work and no play. Or maybe you just can’t figure out how to balance all your responsibilities.

05. You’re constantly comparing yourself to other people.

Comparison is the thief of joy. It’s important to remember how valuable you are as a human being.

Lemme tell you, I’ve been in need of a reset more times than I’d like to admit.

There are officially 49 days until the release of my new book, The Reset Workbook. One of the best and most meaningful ways to support me and the work that I do is to pre-order your copy from Amazon. For every preorder, Amazon will purchase two additional copies. If you have the resources to preorder five copies that’s even better.

How to do any creative project

1. Decide on what you want to do. Every journey starts with a decision.

Select a creative project that speaks to your heart, something you are genuinely passionate about because your enthusiasm will be your driving force throughout the project.

2. Go after the goal with your full heart and assume that it’s going to work out.

Approach it with unwavering commitment. Embrace the belief that your effort will pay off in the end. This positive mindset is essential, as it fuels your determination and helps you overcome obstacles.

3. When you feel like giving up… keep going.

Creative projects are not always smooth sailing. You may encounter setbacks, self-doubt, or the temptation to quit. When these moments arise, remember your initial enthusiasm and push forward. The most significant breakthroughs happen when you push through fear.

4. Celebrate the journey.

Upon completion, revel in your achievement. Regardless of the outcome, relish the fact that you followed your passion and saw the project through. Creative endeavors are a labor of love, and it’s crucial to detach from any specific outcomes. The journey itself is a reward, a testament to your dedication and creativity.
