Today’s Show Up! Journal power words. Yikes! This one is tough for me. Most of my life I’ve had too many interests. I’ve pursued a diffuse array of passions. Only in the last year or so have I chosen a different path. I’ve chosen to narrow my focus until it is a laser. The more…
Today’s Show Up! Journal power words from my morning free-write. Today it’s about having faith. What you decide will happen often does if you are willing to be dogged in its pursuit.

Here are today’s power words from the Show Up! Journal. I realized this morning that I have been letting fear keep me from acting.
