✨ Journalling for Week 2 • On Courage

Doing this publicly for accountability as I "catch up" with this week, six days after the content drop.

1. What would be different if I operated from pure courage?

I'd say the thing, do the thing, be the thing. I love the idea of asking this before creating anything.

2. What would be different if I lived from my heart instead of my fear?

Well... as Christopher Wallis likes to point out, much of our conditioning or wounding sits in the heart space, so "living from the heart" technically means "living from my heart-related wounds".

I'd position it as what would be different if I lived from essence nature, not fear. That's just the nerdy Classical Tantra geek in me.

And this is a good example of living from essence nature, and not fear. 😂

What would be different is an even deeper surrender to flow and action, where the gap between inspiration and execution becomes shorter and shorter. And where inspiration doesn't die on the vine because I've got scared, turned away, dismissed it, or whatever.

3. What part of me wants to come through?

I posted a reel this week and a friend & colleague I admire (who doesn't normally comment on my reels) posted "The periodic cuteness in this video is so great.". I had to go back and re-watch to see what he meant... and the silly, satirical, take-the-piss part of me was coming through. I love that part. If feels the most real, spontaneous, playful and alive. That's the part I want to start opening to and cultivating through my content creation.

4. What am I going to do differently this week to express more of myself?

I'm going to collect random footage throughout my day, both of what I'm looking at and me to camera, and then pull it together during a Reel Creation Block. I'm going to focus on that playful, satirical aspect coming through too.

I know we're meant to be posting a video a day... I have been fairly consistent (except when off-grid) with posting daily videos to my stories. But that's nothing new and whilst it 'ticks the boxes' it doesn't activate the underlying process that Dane is pointing to.

So this week, I'll focus on recording a video day, whether or not I get one up every day.

See how that goes!
