Journal It and Burn It
Is there something bothering you and you need to let it go?
Do you need to forgive someone from your past or that time you put your foot in your mouth?
How about finding a way the eliminate negative thoughts?
There is a tried and true magical method of clearing your soul:
1) Scribble your thoughts on a piece of paper or fill an entire journal - it’s up to you. Getting your thoughts onto paper will make them real. You can deal with that.
2) Once you’ve dumped your worries, it’s time to burn them into oblivion. Light a match, light a fire and celebrate as they disappear.
I promise. This simple act will release the weight you feel and set you free to enjoy the best of every day.

Learn. Churn. Burn. Earn.
Learn. Churn. Burn. Earn.
A few years ago, I was chatting with a friend about his business. He owned a struggling martial arts school and was crafting a master plan to grow in the coming year.
Since every goal requires, learning, churning, burning, and earning - I had four questions:
1) How long do you think it will take to LEARN what it takes to succeed?
2) How long can you CHURN away while you work toward your goal?
3) Do you have resources to BURN? How long will your money last while you move forward?
4) When will you EARN your reward for your hard work?
Be prepared before you begin. Consider those questions before you start. The journey may be longer than you think.

"The idea of perfect closes your mind to new standards. When you drive hard toward one ideal, you miss opportunities and paths, not to mention hurting your confidence. Believe in your potential and then go out and explore it; don't limit it."

"As a scientist, I am not sure anymore that life can be reduced to a class struggle, to dialectical materialism, or any set of formulas. Life is spontaneous and it is unpredictable, it is magical. I think that we have struggled so hard with the tangible that we have forgotten the intangible."
