This is great Jess. I particularly enjoyed the green eyed monster section and asking around, such great ideas for understanding our multifaceted selves better. I’m slipping further and further away from social media and can’t see myself going back there, I feel like I’ve found my home in Substack (for as long as it feels right to be here) but the one and only social media challenge I did was a ‘draw this in your style’ which really did make a huge impact on my creativity 💛 wise and thoughtful words 💛
Oh wow what a fun social media challenge!! I'm with you on the drifting-away-from-social-media front... The fact that I keep forgetting to post anything even when it's on my to-do list, and that I feel much happier creating instead of doomscrolling is a pretty good sign to keep my distance, I think!
Thank you so much for giving this a read - I'm glad those two sections clicked for you!
I love this! Thanks for the inspiration and helpful exercises. Going down the line, "Write a bio for future you" grabbed my attention immediately. Visualizing my future self and getting really specific about what future Laura is doing has helped me achieve so many goals. However, I've never visualized my future self in bio format. I can't wait to try this! :D As my friend Shulin says, "energy flows where your attention goes." Every post you write is a tool for channeling energy towards a dream life/creative life by showing me exactly what to pay attention to. Thanks for sharing your kaleidoscopic vision with us!
Belated but thank you so much for reading and sharing your kind words and that amazing quote, Laura!! Your future self is doing spectacular things, I know it! I hope putting a bio together proved to be a fun and helpful activity! Reminds me of our vision board days :)
