The Art of Showing Up
Master the art of showing up. Start small and scale up. Some of us are great at showing up for others, but not so good at putting ourselves first.
Why not think of a few things you'd like to improve and take them slowly. We don't have to be perfect or awesome right away.
Good luck and I hope you are inspired. Choose life. Choose happiness. Take care and best wishes.

The art of showing up
Sounds simple as a concept
But for many people
It is challenging to master
If you spent your life
Putting the needs of others first
It becomes exceptionally difficult
To honour your own needs at all
So, try something simple
Write down a goal or two
Commit to giving it five minutes
And increasing it over time
By showing up for yourself
You show that you deserve those goals
By showing up for yourself
You show respect and honour untold
For in those incremental moments
You're building confidence and strength
Mental, physical, emotional and spiritual
It all matters in the end
You don't have to be perfect
No one is born a master at anything
Try to have fun and be open
Learn and grow and find inspiration
Try to focus on the positive
'Cos what's the worst that could happen?
If you fail, you'll have learned something
If you succeed, you'll have a new platform
For each new skill level
Helps us expand our range some more
Until we find that we have learned
Way more than we thought possible
It may seem so silly
But trust me, it will count
And over the next year
You will be amazed at the result
