Loving Life Blog

Hello world! It’s been a while.

Fifteen years ago I started this blog. It came about after three months of doing morning pages, in a period of soul searching and life pivots in several areas when living in San Francisco. I must have shared about this morning ritual before – yes, in these two posts.

“The bedrock tool of a creative recovery is a daily practice called Morning Pages.“

This year I picked up the practice again. And here I am.

I have felt the urge to write, but expressed it in other outlets. Earlier this week I got a letter in my mailbox – with a gifted pen. With my company logo on. What an ego boost, I must admit. (Thank you pens.com) The last few days has in several ways taken me back to when I started my business – the reason *Why*. Communication – “Herringbone – Make yourself heard” / “Making voices heard for positive change”- was one key pillar. Coaching – “Envision. Embrace. Achieve” – was another one. Structure – for empowering individuals and businesses in creating greater things and lasting change – was the basis. It started with a journaling software. The vision became grand.

Herringbone – Envision. Embrace. Achieve.
A plattorm for profitable co-creation with meaning, that will revolutionize the use of Social Media.

Sometimes things become too grand. And it is better to start small.

Sometimes you run. And you run to fast. Or blindfolded. Or following the main stream. Or doing what is necessary right then and there. And suddenly – you realize you might have taken the wrong path, for you.

Nothing stops you to begin again. Start over. Maybe not completely. Start small.

I am starting here and now, by picking up the pen. Dusting off. Turning the coins. Testing the thoughts and ideas. Reconnecting. Coming home. Oh, sweet home.

How are you doing?

Wishing you a great weekend.
All the very best,

Johanna
