A while back I watched a video in which the speaker pointed out that, "Writing and drawing move thoughts from the intangible into a direction of action."
(Apologies... I have no idea of the source.)
The notebook page Calliope references is not dated.
I recognize it as several or more years old.
A group of friends and I wrote out (and shared) a paragraph envisioning our next 5-10 years.
We also made note of our top 5 core values.
My vision centered on the type of person I wanted to become.
My paragraph centered on my character, not external rewards.
I recalll reading a book about meditation. The method presented advised… if a thought comes to mind… start over at zero?! Needless to say I was not a great student of that philosophy.

I
have
to
say...
life is serving up experiences
for me to grow
into that person.
How cool is that?

I love this Gail! Isn't great when we look back and see the progress, the lessons, the growth. So fun!
You got me thinking... I will decorate my notebook.
My friend Ilene sparked the idea of decorating my notebook cover. She also does the inside pages — one of her creative outlets! 😁
Looking back and seeing the progress is quite satisfying. ❤️
I love this idea! Thanks again and good morning! :)
An elucidating Universe! Sometimes we must still ourselves. Long ago I observed, “God doesn’t shout. We have to pay attention and listen carefully.”
Your “seeing” with the power of a five year old EV with a new and upgraded battery! 👏🏼👏🏼
Sounds so simple when you explain it like that! 🤭

I much prefer an observe, then dissect approach.
All kinds of kinds!
It. Is. Very cool!
