OK everyone... I guess the "cool" people are probably out doing "cool" things on a Friday night but I have a fully booked weekend so I am staying in this Friday evening and after MAAAANNNY years of planning parties and partying, partying and more partying I am good (and lucky I am not dead really). Anyhoo, I digress ... I am starting something new and I am so excited! OK, so some people know that I love to post daily quotes to my facebook page and I am still going to do that because I know people love them and I find the whole process to be a great habit for myself too... BUT last night I learned a new amazing journaling tidbit about how to create my own quotes (and / or poems) and I am so excited to share this little exercise with you (this is also a great tool for workshop facilitators, super fun). Now usually the idea is to choose "words" from a pile but if you don't happen to have a box full of pre-made words (which is another project) then you can do this little exercise by choosing words in a book, or a few books / magazines. Write the words out as you choose them, then form into a quote or a poem. This can now be written in your journal, or made into quotes for around the house, vision board, picture frame and / or to post on your social networks. I have gone ahead and randomly chosen some words from different books in my office and I really loved all of the words, sat with them, arranged them into sentences and a poem and this is what I came up with so far! I have written these into a journal workbook that I have been creating in. This was waaaay too much fun and I will practise this often! I would LOVE to read some of your quotes / poems too! Please post them in my comment area below. Here they are: "Listen first, then walk on your ever-changing and infinite path of harmony." "A winner knows how to 'just be' in the quantum heart of nothing." Living Grand I thought these quotes might be fun to add to a photo too and look what I found! http://quote4fun.com/create/ and look what I made in just a few minutes...
