Lean in the direction of what feels good

by Lisa Kohn | Feb 20, 2017 | Passion

I can do it. I can choose to see what’s working. I can choose to see what’s good. I have an option before me in every moment. Do I want to focus on a struggle, or do I want to focus on a joy? Do I want to see the challenges in front of me, or do I want to look for...
