Are you dreaming or are you fantasizing?
Morning Motivation A dream is different than a fantasy. A dream is attainable—I want to be a teacher. A fantasy is imaginary—I want to be a unicorn. Dreams can come in all sizes, shapes, forms and colors—big, small, life size, tiny. What are your dreams? You can have more than one! They all matter and you can create them all—over time—some each day, some in the years to come. Dreams that can be created daily: health, laughter, a creative practice. Dreams that need daily action over longer periods of time for them to manifest: an education, a novel, a business. Don’t get trapped in a fantasy, focus on your very real dreams. Start creating them right...
Read MoreAre you perched?
Morning Motivation Everything is in place. Everything is available. Everything is in order. You’re perched and ready to go. Why aren’t you going then?! Nothing is in place. Nothing is available. Nothing is in order. You’re perched and scared to go. Why aren’t you going then?! It will never feel perfect. It will always feel risky. So regardless of how or where or why you are perched, you must jump off and go for it! If you never leave your perch you’ll never find out where you can fly. Just jump. Take flight. Create from it. What are you going to create? ...
Read MoreAre you reinventing?
Morning Motivation Are you stuck? Does it all look the same? Is your vision blurring? STOP whatever you’re doing and reinvent it all! Close your eyes. Visualize the situation, the problem, the creation in another color, as if it wasn’t your problem, if the situation were under another set of circumstances. Try something else. Turn it upside down. Take a piece away from it. Walk away for five minutes. Do whatever it takes to think, see, feel, act, and respond differently and reinvent how you’re thinking and reinvent what you have to create from! Free up your mind to put odd things together to make it look fresh, new, weird. Talk it out in another...

Read MoreRattlesnake Syndrome
I’ve lived in the same town and in the same house my entire life. Most of the people I graduated high school with I have known since I was four. I know my home town like the back of my hand. My grandma calls that Rattlesnake Syndrome. Rattlesnakes can only live a few miles away from where they are born—they have very specific habitat requirements. My decision to move over 700 miles away for college definitely meant I did not have Rattlesnake Syndrome! Change was not something I was accustomed to which is why I think I was so eager for it. I went to school in a foreign place called Colorado, two states away from my family in Missouri. I felt so special going so...
Read MoreHow high can you soar?
Morning Motivation Do you ever find yourself on a roll, in the flow, feeling magical only to suddenly stop it, your self, the creation when fear, doubt, panic, jealousy, anger, comparing, competing or the need for validation swoop in and crush your creative flight? It’s time to let go of any restrictions! It’s time to give you permission. It’s time to fly without a ceiling. Let yourself soar. See how high you can go. Find out what you can create at such heights. Let go of your fear. Forget your doubt. Release your anxiety. Give yourself permission to soar. Create from what you have—an infinite stratosphere. What are you going to create? ...
Read MoreWhat is feeding you?
Morning Motivation You control what feeds you, literally as well as figuratively—food, drink, friends, family, news, books, entertainment, communication, community. Instead of mindlessly accepting whatever comes your way to feed your mind, body and spirit, consciously choose what feeds you. What are you choosing to eat? What are you choosing to drink? Who are you choosing to spend your time with? Who are you surrounding yourself with? What are you looking at? What are you letting in your brain? Where are you living? How are you living? Create the mind, body and spirit you aspire to have by carefully selecting what feeds you. Feed yourself well. Feed...
Read MoreHow are you decorating your life?
Morning Motivation Instead of thinking you shouldn’t or you can’t or it’s not appropriate to get creative in your life, decide there are absolutely no limits! Your life is your tree to decorate however and with whatever that brings you the most joy, brings out the best in you and shares your uniqueness with the world. Don’t worry about what anyone else thinks. Don’t worry about matching. Don’t worry about fitting in. If the combinations you see in your imagination don’t exist, create them. Be audacious in your decorating! It’s your life. Decorate it. Be audacious. Create your life’s decorations. What are you going to create? ...
Read MoreWhat are you creating?
Morning Motivation Every moment of every minute of every day through every thought, intention, word, and action we are creating our lives. What are you creating? Is it what you dream of? Is it what you hope for? Is it what you aspire to be? Don’t just think. Don’t just set intention. Don’t just talk. Don’t just dream. Don’t just imagine. Don’t just hope. Do them all while channeling them into concrete and focused actions! Take one small step forward towards what you want to create every day, whatever it is that you want to create, and you’ll be that much closer to it. There is no easy, magical, imaginary path.
