Category: the year in haiku

Respect your limits
Sustained effort takes its toll
Steady as she goes

Read one thing each day
Daily thoughts nourish the soul
Ensure constant growth

Maintain a routine
Be flexible when needed
Two forces combined

Things don’t go to plan
Sometimes it just can’t be helped
Don’t wallow in it

Think before you speak
Don’t be the clanging symbol
Make each sound matter

Step up to the plate
Combat impostor syndrome
Your opinion counts

Some things have to wait
Only so much you can do
Don’t beat yourself up

Don’t go it alone
We’re all in this together;
Life is a team sport

Be kind to others 
But charity starts at home;
Don’t forget yourself

Choose how you spend time 
You can’t take it for granted
Focus on your goals

Know your own value
Confidence brings its reward
With humility

Judgement or ego;
Don’t fall prey to either one
Both will do you harm

Don’t fear what is new
Change is neither good nor bad
It just simply ‘is’

Life is a mirror
Reflecting thoughts and feelings
Straight back to the source

Build on your progress
Don’t be content to meet goals
Strive to exceed them
