"Flowing water never goes stale." -Bruce Lee
A paper planner is more than just a collection of calendars and lists. It's a workbook we use to write our own life story, and I learned that we get to begin every day using tools we pick up along the way.
My mission in opening "FlowTraitDesigns" is to design printable inserts, dashboards and task cards that inspire you to find YOUR "flow": the sweet spot between darkness and light, resistance and ease, acceptance and change, production and rest, discipline and surrender. Schedule rest and self-care as much as you schedule work and school. Build a routine that gives you time to be spontaneous.
To me, being in a state of flow is being in the moment with laser focus, not tunnel vision. Sometimes that moment is spent in the past reflecting on lessons, not regret. Sometimes that moment is spent in the future, to help guide present decisions toward a greater vision. Sometimes that moment is being here and now honoring light and yes, darkness, within us with gratitude. I seek to have as many moments like this as possible: I want to transform my flow states into a flow trait. Using my planner inserts helps me build this character, and I think they'll help you too!
Flow with me,
Mariel
