Good Morning 1.11.2008

Over the past decade, many people have been turning toward the "voluntary simplicity" movement--giving up chaos for calm, and learning to make life choices that reflect a state of calm-energy instead of anxious-energy. This 30-day class will give you 30 steps for embarking down the path to a sane and simpler life.

Starts January 14

Throughout the ages, many women have used journaling to solve problems, gain insight, and encourage self-discovery. One need not be a writer or creative to derive the benefits that can only be found though the practice of journaling.

Starts January 21

During this 30 Day Paper and File Makeover you will learn a new way to tackle the paper piles once and for all. The one unique rule of my approach is that during this class, you are not allowed to purchase any manila folders, hanging files, cute tabs, filing cabinets, paper sorters, or other paper-storing materials. We aren't going to buy a system and try to make your papers "fit into the system." Instead, we are going to discover your unique Paper Personality, and then create the system to support it.

Before I built a wall I'd ask to know what I was walling in or walling out.- Robert Frost

Good morning! Have you ever built a wall in your life? Perhaps you've built an emotional wall to avoid hurt in some area. Perhaps you've built a wall around your confidence, because you are scared to fail. Perhaps you've built a wall to keep away a certain type of person.

Frosts' quote offers a realization that we often overlook. If we going to build a wall, we are going to be keep something in and something out. For in order to have a wall, by definition, there has to be something outside and inside of it.

Building a wall isn't easy. And it isn't easy to take a wall down, either. We would be smart to follow Frost's advice and before building any more walls in our emotional or physical life, make sure that wall has a purpose that we want to live with.

Your Turn:
What physical and emotional walls have you created in your life? Write down each one and articulate the purpose it serves. Are there any walls that you need to tear down in 2007 so that you have room to grow?

Your Affirmation:
I release destructive patterns and place positive action in their place.

Challenge Life!
