okay i had to make myself sign up to comment on this. So well said. I'm an adult just about Un attaching herself from a 30 year old story. we forget that we're the only people that know ourselves well enough to delusion ourselves convincingly. and then forget about it because life is such.

Important message put simply in words! Thank you! I don’t think I’m feeling the WOW in the moment to be honest not sure what to focus on, I keep living my life and hoping it will happen. 🙃

Wise life lessons. It's important for us to consistently practice self-introspection and ponder such important questions.

Cory, let me start by saying that this post is fantastic. I've had 2 of those WOW moments.

The first one happened in 2001, when I realised that I wanted to be a Psychotherapist, that this was what made me feel good. It was then that I decided to start my private practice.

But the main WOW moment of my life happened in 1985, when I was 10 years old and won a prize for a text I had written. Since then, writing and my daily walks in nature have been my daily WOW moments

Well said! 20+ years ago, while in a very dark place. I came across the quote. “Don’t ask what your world needs but ask what makes you come alive and go do it. Because what the world needs is people who have come alive.” Asking myself that question has transformed my life!

Amazing post, amazing insights!! I loved this part "What was I doing that gave me that otherworldly, intoxicating, flow state-inducing high that music once had? The answer was writing. It was then I decided to let go of the story that I had to create music and totally focused on my writing. That’s when I had the idea to commit to writing daily. I made a deal with myself that as a creative practice, I’d write a personal insight every day and post it on Instagram."

Yes! Same here, writing and being productive online / building a newsletter is also what get's me into this flow state many are missing in their daily life's..
