you are the expert on you

A friend left a book on my doorstep (thank you JH) a few months ago and I am reading it now. I don’t love all of it but there are some excellent points that really hung in with me. I want to pass them on to you

your life purpose is what you say it is

declare/use your superpowers

being your true self is the most effective formula for success there is

your curiousity is your growth point- Always.

passion will always move you in the direction of your authentic self

your most valuable currency is what comes naturally to you

you are freer than you think you are

you are the expert on you (sometimes I like to refer to other experts on me too though)

transparency is sexy

your hunger will lead you home

every single one of us is an artist at something

make stuff that feels good to make

it is often best to do the opposite of what your fear is telling you to do

a dream is a sacred thing to share

the past is never as relevant as we think it is

you are what you think about all day

“anyone or anything that does not bring you alive is too small for you” David Whyte, poet

your life is your content to the ‘art’ you make- all the distractions, the inconveniences, influences and catastrophes all lead to this content (Oh I love that)

(OK I am seriously sorry for the glitch that caused many of you to get this in triplicate. I wish I could find my superpowers)

    • Hi FJ – sorry about the multi posts today – there is a glitch. It is called FIRE STARTER SESSIONS by Danielle Laporte- thanks for stopping in and let me know what you think of the book!

  2. Thanks and no worries on multiple posts, hitting delete is free and easy. Too funny.. I know Danielle, met her years ago when she was running StyleStatement. Will check it out and connect with you offline about a project I’m working on.. I see a fit between your work and mine.
