Which one?
[Today’s quick tip]
We’re artists.
And all artists share a common thread: too many good ideas.
This conundrum causes some unnecessary confusion for us. Because the reality is there will never be a shortage of good ideas.
And the question isn’t how to fit them all into our lifetime…
The question is…
Which one will you choose?
Which one is worthy of your time?
Which ones play to your strengths and invite you into your genius?
In her book “Big Magic”, author Elizabeth Gilbert suggests that ideas are like little fairies, flying around, tapping folks on the shoulder, looking for someone to bring them to life. If this is true, I imagine the unseen realm of space to be a veritable rush hour of ideas.
What are 5 great ideas you’re considering devoting your attention to in 2025?
Now, take ONE of those ideas, and run it through my signature 5-question “Muse Management” Assessment:
1. Am I deeply moved by this idea and willing to commit and devote myself to its completion?
2. Am I wholehearted in my commitment to this idea? (if there’s even a lick of half-heartedness, leave it be)
3. Does this idea require me to level up and work in an area of my mastery and genius? (if not, why bother?)
4. Will this idea create prosperity and generate financial resources?
5. If no to #4, will it bring me unspeakable satisfaction, joy and expansion?
In the most ideal scenario, any idea you say yes to checks at least 4 of these boxes.
[Note: no, not every idea needs to be monetized, which is why I say 4 out of 5 boxes. For more on whether to monetize something, check out this podcast episode on the subject.]
Hopefully you got some clarity whether that idea is worth your precious time, money, attention and energy.
Then what?
The 5 question-framework above is a great start.
Now, let’s go deeper.
Join me for the live annual planning challenge, Spirit-Led Life Design. Meet with us December 12-20th, and let me help you rumble with hard decisions, make wise choices and create a plan for creating beautiful things in 2025.
This is not a conceptual workshop where I talk a lot and there’s no action required.
This is a video-on, ask-lots-of-questions, get-real-results planning party to map out your most expansive, impactful, courageous year yet.
These are all my best tried and true practices. I’ll give you all my favorite time-tested tips, methods and tools, plus a loving and supportive environment to design a luminous life!
This is the ideal time of year to weigh your options and use your wise discernment to focus your precious time and attention.
Seize the moment. Go all in! You won’t be disappointed.
Taking a stand for your best ideas to be birthed,
PS.
All sessions will be recorded and available the same day. Try to join us live, but If you need to miss a session no problem. There’s even two catch-up days, to allow some extra time so you don’t fall behind.
PPS.
Do me and you both a favor, and invite a friend to join you in the challenge! We’re more effective and have more fun when we do it together. Send someone you love this link and I’ll see you both there ;)
