The calling from which I can no longer hide
Is a reliable guideTrust I must

Is enough to conquer my fear
and persevereTrust I must

The actions I take every day
Won’t lead me astrayTrust I must
That I am not alone
And that this calling
Will bring me homeTrust I must
Every day
That this is the path
This is my way#38 Regret, worry, forget
ByLukasWe regret the past, worry about the future, and forget about the now.
What if I:
- learn from and let go of the past
- create an empowering vision of the future, informed by your imagination AND lessons of the past
- act in the now, confident that every action you take brings you closer towards that vision
To let go of the past:
- Write Morning Pages – Stream of Consciousness journaling
- Did I give it my all? Whether my actions were aligned or misguided, did I go for it 100%?
- Did I allow myself to learn something and see the silver lining?
To create a future with fewer worries:
- Write Morning Pages – Stream of Consciousness journaling
- Develop trust in yourself and your good intentions
To be in the moment:
- Write Morning Pages – Stream of Consciousness journaling
- Breathe
- Walk in nature
- Create something
- Talk… and listen
The constant: write Morning Pages.

#290 Your unique contribution
ByLukasWhat do you see that others don’t even notice?
What do you feel that others don’t even seem to care about?
What do you like to do that most others never even entertain?
What do you write about that most others haven’t even considered?
And instead of seeing such differences as a societal warning sign, discouraging you from pursuing it…
Can you see them as an encouraging sign of unique contributions you’re about to make?
Embrace your individuality.
#257 Not pleasant, but predictable
ByLukasGetting worked up about traffic jams is not pleasant, but it’s predictable. And addictive.
So is giving up on writing a book, quitting a workout regime, and re-living any conflict or failure.
Not pleasant. But predictable.
This is how you’ve always felt. And this is how you’ll always feel – unless you become aware of the unpleasant, predictable, addictive patterns and decide to act differently.
Not only once, not twice, but every time you become aware of the pattern until you’ve built enough self-trust that you know the unpleasant predictable events aren’t inevitable.
