THE ART OF SELF JOURNAL

What if... What if you couldn't see. What if you couldn't see what anyone else had, What if you couldn't see how others dressed, What if you couldn't see what car they drove, Where they lived or worked, What things filled their spaces, What colour, shape or size they were, Who they hung out with, where they hung out, where they ate or took holidays, What if all of it wasn't visible to you. Would that change how you lived your life? Would you do things differently, would you

Do you take the time to learn those close to you. Not in a way that YOU want to know them as, to fit your ideal, but learn them in the way that they work, in who they truly are, what makes them tick. Do you know what excites them, scares them, Do you know the difference between them needing space or needing your time, Can you tell when they're nervous, unsure, uncertain, Can you tell when they're in their flow, in their zone. Often we try to get to know & mould people for o

There is something you're being asked to stand down from, step back from. It may be the very thing that for a long time has given you the up & go, the reason to get out of bed each day. It may be the thing that made complete sense to you for a part of your life, it may be the thing that brought you to this very moment, that got you here, or maybe it's an internal shift, a cycle that you are now aware of that doesn't fit your future self. It's no longer the thing that drives

We are constantly moving from one thing to the next in life, moving so quickly that we're not giving ourselves time to stop and appreciate what is and enjoying the space we're in. We're in constant hurry, ticking off our goals, the next step, the next achievement like another notch on the belt, like the worlds going to end. We think one thing is going to be the thing that brings happiness to our world, yet once that's ticked off, we don't necessary feel that feeling of fulfi

"We don't see them as a story, we see them as a page" - Jay Shetty. (thank you Summa for sharing this with me xx) We are all a book...we all have different chapters that form our life's story, a story that is filled with experiences, love, grief, sadness, excitement, adventures, lessons & growth...yet many of us only see one page of that, or more so, only choose to see one page. We take one conversation, event, encounter, stories we hear, a look, a sound, a choice made and

That's right, start making others feel uncomfortable. When I say this, I by all means don't mean this in a petty way, but more in a loving, intentional, good for all, way. There are many things in life we would love to be able to do or have, we can wish for things to be different, yet we know it will make others feel uncomfortable...not only for them, but also for us. Yet if we went ahead with it anyway, it could bring growth to ourselves and to others. Let’s look at those

We all know just how fast life can tick by...one moment people are preparing for the world to end as the clock ticks over to the year 2000 (who even started that crazy talk anyway haha) to now, with the end of 2023 insight. The clock will keep ticking! We can sit around and repeat our ways over and over again, but that clock will never stop, the years will not slow down and your dreams, your desires will never die either. I was sitting chatting with one of my kids the other

There’s not one specific time in our life that takes us from being a child to an adult. The number of our age changes, yet we don’t suddenly take on a different way of being…a different way of being is something we must be conscious of taking on and yes we have all had those moments that does step us into being an adult, deciding we want something else for ourselves, doing adult things (ticking the checklist of life off)…but still the majority of us are walking around as a ch

How can you be more of HER (more of YOU) you ask? You pick one thing! You pick one thing and you play with it, try it on for size, practice it, own it until you become it. Then repeat! How can you be more of HER? More of who you imagine in your mind HER to be, More of what excites you when you think of HER, Thing is, you already know her inside out, You can already see her, You know what she looks like, acts like, feels like, you know every inch of her. She is your future se
