Yes, I've clearly gotten very behind in this challenge. I recently reached the halfway point so I thought I'd give a large update rather than write about each day since I'm behind on five (yikes). I sort of expected to last a week or two and I knew the biggest hurdle would be finishing the …

I AM BRAVE – Day 11, 12 & 13
It hasn't even been two weeks of this challenge and I'm already failing. But it was such a busy weekend with a dance concert and a wedding, then work this week. I also feel that when I can't commit the proper time to this and really reflect, that it's better to put it off until …
I AM BRAVE – Day 8, 9 & 10
Forcing myself to write this late on a Monday night because if I drop the ball now, I'm never going to make it to day 30 of this challenge. Day 8 ... I Am Capable Today's challenge is something I try to do on a regular basis: sending words of encouragement to a friend. In …
I AM BRAVE – Day 6 & 7

I AM BRAVE – Day 3
While I wait for my friends to reply on this topic I'm going to go ahead and start writing my own thoughts. Today's challenge is to identify our strengths and weaknesses. And to do so by asking a close friend (or friends) who you trust. I've sent out this questions to as few friends and …
I AM BRAVE – Day 2
Today I have to declare my commitment to this challenge. There are a few options of ways to show this commitment and I'm torn between a couple. I've already declared it publicly (somewhat) by blogging about it. Now I'm debating between setting monetary stakes if I fail and adapting my morning routine. I think I'm …
I AM BRAVE – Day 1
It's been a couple weeks since I intended to start this blog and I got discouraged (what else is new). But I'm starting something new today and need a place to track the progress, "An Elysian Mind" is just the place to do that. I decided to join the Hay House World Summit (another conversation …
