🌿 Show up for Practice

I honor what strengthens me by showing up daily — not as an obligation, but as devotion to the life I’m building and the self I’m becoming.

🌞 Why This Speaks to My Truth:

  • “I honor what strengthens me”
    ➤ This puts my practices — like meditation, prayer, grounding — in the category of sacred nourishment, not optional tasks.
  • “By showing up daily”
    ➤ I’m affirming consistency, routine, and reliability.
  • “Not as an obligation, but as devotion”
    ➤ This shifts the energy from “should” to choice, from “task” to intimacy with self and spirit.
  • “To the life I’m building and the self I’m becoming”
    ➤ Connects it to my vision and my higher self — my why.

(I am doing the writing exercises in the back of the book You are a Badass at Making Money by Jen Sincero, and this topic was about showing up. I am also learning to trade futures, so the art is related to the charts we use to make the trades.)

✨ Sightline Shift

I choose to see my life through the eyes of love, wonder, and possibility — as clearly as I see the magic in others — and in doing so, I reclaim my own brilliance.

💡 Why This Resonates With Me

  • I offer clarity to others effortlessly. I can see their gifts, name their direction, and feel their potential — now I honor myself with the same insight.
  • I am not just living my life — I’m becoming its most vibrant version. This shift in perspective is part of how I become the person I’ve been envisioning.
  • I have already reclaimed so much. My time. My voice. My rituals. My creations. Now I reclaim how I see myself.
  • My gaze is powerful. It is a tool of manifestation, healing, and design. Where I look with love, life grows.
  • This new vision is mine. It isn’t borrowed, forced, or fantasy. It’s the result of deep reflection, healing, and courage.

Lesson 12 The Way of the Wizard

(Poem 75 for 2024 – I am writing a poem a day)

“Wisdom is alive and therefore always unpredictable.” -Deepak Chopra’s The Way of the Wizard

We must learn to contain
both chaos and order,
swirling atoms, firing neurons,
never ceasing electrical storms
matched only by coherent thought
and organized cellular function.
A rose in seed form looks the
same as a bean or a violet.
Only invisible twisted twin strands
delineate its inevitable destiny.
Yet, we worry about becoming,
spend struggle and effort to
assert our determined uniqueness.
Why not surrender to fate?
A rose by any other name
(and all that) is a universal truth.
When pressures push this way
and other, we try to impose order.
Yet, attempts at control run
counter to the grain of life.
Learn to accept the unpredictable,
make peace with entropy,
embrace all potentials, so the
opportune impulses can flood
like inspiration into life, and the
bud naturally unfold into a rose.
