Power Words

There are words, and there are words. You most likely know what I mean.

They are also the words that sit in your secret heart, burning in the night. Your secret words that all along, have driven you and pushed your dreams in certain directions. They whisper to you in quiet moments, and at other times sneak into your daydreams…

It’s worth listening to your power words, once in a while. They will lead you in the direction of your happiness and best work.
