“I have always been attracted to a quiet life where reading and writing were central to my sanity. While my friends loved to be out and about, I enjoyed curling up to read, write or watch TV. Once I discovered hygge and realized there was a whole culture out there that loved the same lifestyle I did, I breathed a huge sigh of relief. I was not alone. I’ve never looked back…”

WHAT DOES IT MEAN TO LIVE BEAUTIFUL?
Surround yourself with beautiful things and do the things you love to do. Take the time to invest in yourself until you’ve created the life you want to live.
“Live a life you don’t need to take a vacation from.”
Jill Leberman
SURROUND yourself with beautiful things. DO the things you love to do. TAKE the time to invest in yourself. CREATE the life you want to live. WHAT do you consider beautiful? WHAT do you never grow tired of? WHAT do you unconditionally love? CHOOSE TO DO MEANINGFUL. ACT by personal choice. ASK – WILL this make my life better? WILL this bring me closer to my goals or affirmations? DOES this suit me? DO I want to do this? WILL my heart be in this work?
CREATE A PERSONAL ZEN SPACE
SURROUND yourself in comfort, security and your favourite things. KEEP ONE AREA: your desk, your table, your easel as your sacred creative space. Have a space to retreat to. LISTEN TO THE CALL to recharge your energy.
AN INTROVERT HANGOVER IS A VERY REAL THING
KNOW WHERE your energy comes from – when you have it the most so you can use it efficiently. Most people can only be creative for a few hours a day – use that time wisely.
KNOW WHICH THINGS take the most of your energy? Know when you are the most productive? When will you need downtime to rest, rejuvenate and recharge?
CHASE YOUR MUSE
GO OUT and chase the why?
GET AFTER the what?
FIND OUT who?
PURSUE the where?
ASK the world how?
INQUIRE about when?
“Life is messy. Tell your story.”
