Effort doesn’t always equal outcomes. And maybe life as an experience was the better metric all along. Encouraged

Be Encouraged! There’s always something wrong…but what happens when you train yourself to look for what’s right?!

Be Encouraged! What you can learn from your haters…a deep thought from Elizabeth Gilbert. Make sure your creative criticism comes from love, including from yourself….

Be Encouraged! There’s an Icelandic word I just learned that is everything. It’s a completely different way to look at setbacks and turnarounds.

Be Encouraged! Why what you need is something you already have. Thanks to Natalie Nixon and her book Move Think Rest for “back casting.”

We always imagine a different choice as being better than the reality of the choice we actually made. I explain why I call this “2D thinking” and why your “3D reality” is always better. And some thoughts at the end on the little things we can do to get to saner times.

We can’t change the hard times in life. But we don’t have to like it, and there’s power in letting yourself say that.

I’m not on this platform much anymore—long story!—but popping back in to share this from yesterday! Thanks to Eva Pilgrim and GMA3 for having me. Am I right about exhaustion as a factor?! Vote!
