As Ann and I completed 2014, I realized that oftentimes I felt at odds with my work with Life Crayons: Writing toolOn Purpose Institute and my writing. It was like these two careers, both of which are expressions of my true life purpose, seemed too often to be competing for my time and energy. So, I decided this year I’d bring the two closer together.
As I continued to ponder upon this insight, I realized that, in fact, writing and life purpose coaching (and overall interest in personal development) have been integral parts of my life path for the past twenty-five-plus years. Writing has been a primary tool for my own transformations. (See where I’m going with this?)
So, for 2015 (and probably beyond) exploring how writing can be a powerful tool for transformation (and personal growth, and spiritual evolution) will be a significant theme and focus of this blog. It is my hope and intention that through sharing my life path these past twenty-five years I can inspire others as well.
It’s also my intention to write a book or special report (depending on how long it becomes) on this subject and to do so by, first, writing it as blog posts. If this subject interests, you can join me by looking at the Writing: Transformation Tool category which this post will be found as well.  While the following may change as the writing unfolds, here’s what I’m planning on covering (not necessarily in this order):

  • Laying the Groundwork
  • Who This Book is For
  • Shifting the Mindset
  • Writing: The Swiss Army Knife for Transformation
  • The Blades
  • Blade # Journaling / Purposeful Pages

How have you used writing to enhance your life? (While that may include making money at it, that’s not at all a requirement.)
