Turn on the power

Funny how my brand new washing machine’s power won’t turn on – a brilliant metaphor for my life right now. The circuitry is fine, but the connection is not there, apparently the machine needs “new parts” – I hope that’s not the case for me! We are requesting a new machine and this parallels my [...]

Land on the page – leading with creativity

Posted on 04. Jun, 2010 by Susan Wright.

I was struck with the urge to write this morning and followed that urge into my back sunroom. Often there’s a feeling I get that manifests the creative flow and frequently it gets dismissed due to time constraints, distractions or things I “should” be doing. That’s easy when I look at the state of my [...]

Creative tension – in transition

Posted on 20. May, 2010 by Susan Wright.

Living in discomfort, fuzziness with the odd moments of brilliance I acknowledge that I’m in a shift, a transitional period of my life. Just the other night it occurred to me that I went through this similar experience nine years ago; and yet, this time I’m moving from a entirely different place and context. It’s [...]

Just when I thought it was okay, it wasn’t, just as I started to share, it got scary,  just as I let my guard down, it felt uncomfortable…how many of us feel a little less okay when we start to open our hearts and share what really matters? For those of us who like control [...]

When our voice gets lost

“Cat got your tongue?” my mother would say. Today I had two experiences of seeing and feeling the effects when our voice gets lost. As I picked up my son from the school bus, I learned that he and the other children were acting out and therefore got “pink slipped” – isn’t that something that [...]

Let’s play hockey

So I’m about to write this piece and my son asks, “Mom, can you play hockey with me?” Do I start writing despite his request or do I go play? I’ll be back…It’s been 10 minutes, I’m back on the page and ready to go. I made a choice to be distracted, to indulge in [...]

Key elements to support in a time of change

I’m writing outside today and it’s absolutely perfect; clear blue sky, moderate temperature, and the surrounding landscape is coming alive. In my last blog post I wrote about listening, observing, and paying attention to the signs of change and the positive effect that results in taking care and connecting most intimately with our own landscape.

“Take care” in a time of change

The first signs of spring are evident in my house with a change in sleep patterns and extended play time outside. I’m being challenged, with my parental attempt at maintaining some sort of nighttime routine, apparently bedtime, too, has “sprung forward” with the change of the clock. Evidently, there’s a shift in energy and naturally [...]

Recognizing a shift “to do more great work.”

In the past few weeks I have been having conversations with a wide array of people, in new places, about new ideas. I must admit it has been quite a trip! I needed to quiet myself today to come to the awareness that what I’m creating is a shift to do what Michael Bungay Stanier [...]

March 2010 Dear Friends and Clients: We are still in the first quarter of the year; and yet, I’m aware how quickly the next few weeks will go by. The reality of this awareness suggests it’s time to act, take on every ambition that was set out in January. Despite any resistance I continue to [...]
