UNPLUG
If you want a different life,
You are going to have to
Think, feel, and act differently.
If the journey is
Filling you with dread,
What makes you think
That the destination will
Fill you with joy?
A bird delights in freedom.
Of what use is a golden cage?
Maybe all you’ve got to do
Is dare to dream

If you want a different life,
You are going to have to
Think, feel, and act differently.
If the journey is
Filling you with dread,
What makes you think
That the destination will
Fill you with joy?
A bird delights in freedom.
Of what use is a golden cage?
Maybe all you’ve got to do
Is dare to dream
A new dream.
Remember,
When you’re done,
Is where you begin.
IN-POWER
Just you live
When you feel like
You have no reason to.
One day to the next
To the one after.
When all else is gone,
What is left? Life.
That’s when you realize
It’s all you need.
It’s all you ever needed,
It’s all you’ll ever need.
Be powered from within.
Make the shift from
Operating outside-in
To inside-out.
Build and operate
From an internal empire
That can better withstand
The tests of time.
In-power.
Don’t just survive,
Thrive.
Create joyfully,
A life fueled by
Passion and purpose.
RECREATE
The thing about power is,
You can use it to create or
You can use it to destroy.
True power is when
You choose to create.
When you stop
Taming yourself to fit in,
You will discover
The power within you
That will flat out
Refuse to be tamed.
You were
Born unique.
Then why spend
A lifetime fitting in?
You can be afraid and
Push forward or
You can be afraid and
Hold back.
Push forward.
You already know what comes
From holding back.
Why not push forward and
See what happens?
At the end of it all,
Let your life be about
What you created.
Dare to create.
Begin Again.
