Make friends with the doubts.

We all have doubts. They're very familiar, so redundant and funny sometimes. I asked my clients to befriend them actually. We investigate them and find significant proof that even though they are our thoughts, they aren't the whole truth of a situation or even the truth AT ALL. We can see or find the loveliness of what we are and what we do. Stamping out the doubts for what is true propels us towards what we want to continue to create.

Simple truth.
Laugh at the doubt racing through your head. They don't have the whole story.
Love,
Elaine

Stop Blowing It Off And Do It

Just 30 days ago, I began a challenge to write a blog post for 30 days straight. It knew it would help me reach more people and I love writing.
