Possible
Do we limit what is possible? We lead full lives. Work. Family. Hobbies. We make money and spend it on our lifestyle. We get into routines and habits. Life becomes comfortable. We may get overwhelmed, but generally we know the cycles. My Perspective In the flow of...
Write for Clarity
In a previous post, I covered different ways of journaling to find one that works for you. There is one type of journaling that wasn’t covered and deserves a post of its own. Work journaling. When looking at articles on work journals, there are several purposes....
