Idea Cafe

**Release Your Inner Writer** **Release Your Inner Writer is for anyone who feels they are a writer, wants to be a writer, or those who want to explore writing in a comfortable and supportive setting. We’ll set the stage for you to write creatively with opportunities to share with the group, or not, whatever you’re comfortable with.** Have you ever thought: “I have an interesting story, but I don’t know how to start sharing it with people”? Have you ever thought of writing a book? Do you simply want to start journaling? Every person has a story to share, and all of them are transformational for us and sometimes for others. When we write our thoughts and ideas down, we move internal content to an external device like a notebook or a laptop. By doing this we’re able to clear our heads and uncover one layer after another. **Hosted by Kathy Nutt** **Kathy Nutt** is a creative who uses many media and styles to convey a glimpse into her mysterious, whimsical world. Although mainly focused on the visual arts, she dabbles in the written word and is endeavoring to cultivate a consistent practice of writing, whether it be poetry, essays, short stories, or journaling. Kathy believes a writing practice (along with any creative practice) is a beneficial way to break through the mundane and view our worlds through fresh new eyes. We may discover a breakthrough, change a pattern, or just experience catharsis. Or we may simply arrive in a place of joy. She believes the creative process is more important than the finished product and that creativity is for everyone, not just the gifted few. **CREATING CONNECTION CANADA** is a network of welcoming and inclusive communities committed to sharing authentic conversation, nurturing meaningful activities, promoting holistic wellness practices, and fostering compassionate action. We are LGBTQ+ affirming. People of every walk of life, culture, faith, or tradition, participate in a myriad of connection groups, forming meaningful community within this diversity. As a result, these communities are multi-faceted - expressing the inspirations, aspirations, wisdom, practices, and blessing of all. While we encourage you to share openly, we ask that you do so in a kind and considerate manner. **As a REGISTERED NON-PROFIT** charity working to bring community together through like-minded interests, we welcome and gratefully appreciate any financial support.

We are getting ready to take our Novel Ideas writers group to a writers world! With such uncertain times, a website that is designed FOR writers! We can meet - we can list ideas and group meetings. Oh And the best- they have writer races - it's a new site and we hope to see you there. WWW.BOOKPRESSED.COM

Systems are better than goals! This is an idea I first read about it Scott Adam's(Dilbert Cartoon Creator) book "How to Fail at Almost Everything and Still Win Big". This concept is further developed in the book "Atomic Habits" by James Clear. If you've never heard about idea before you might think this is a vague statement. You might be curious as what this idea fully entails. Well, tune into Monday Morning Motivation and you'll find out! I'll give a short synopsis of how you can better use systems in your life to get what you want. \*\*\* THIS WILL BE AN ONLINE EVENT\*\*\* Please login 5 minutes early. We will do brief introductions and get into our topic of discussion for the day. Please understand that if you ask to be admitted after 8:05 it will likely be denied, due to the fact that we're probably already in a discussion and it would disrupt the flow. I use "Google Meet". It's Google's version of Zoom. Most people are familiar with it. If you're using your phone you will need to download the app. Just go to the app store and search "google meet". If you'll be on your desktop, you should be able to just click on the link and it will open a new web browser and you can just click on join the meeting. Starting out the week right can set the tone for your whole week! Imagine just starting this simple ritual of tuning into hear something that could motivate your life. It could be something that makes you feel good for the rest of the day. There's nothing like connecting with like minded positive people for a few moments, sharing some smiles and then moving on through your day holding that positive energy. Bring your favorite beverage! I'll have coffee! We'll enjoy a simultaneous sip.

There's a Reason Why They Call Him "Mr. Incredible!" Since Getting Started as a Real Estate Investor In 2012, Howard Johnson Routinely Gets 6-Figure Checks By Wholesaling Single-Family Houses In the D.C. Region. Now He Shares His Story... [Join Us For This Important and Timely Master Class - REGISTER BELOW] After getting taken by the "out-of-town gurus" for more than $30,000, Howard Johnson had a deep sense that no one teaching people how to make money in real estate was "capable of telling the truth". Despite his distrust of real estate trainers and training programs, he decided to go at it "one last time" and after doing his research discovered Sherman Ragland and Realinvestors®️. After agreeing to "give Realinvestors®️ a shot", Howard got his first deal in just 14 days. After closing his first deal, he went on to do 14 more deals in less than a year, earning over $100,000 and his personal financial freedom. Today, Howard routinely makes $18,000, $22,000 and $24,000, per deal. On several occasions, Howard has made over $100,000, on just one deal by simply putting the property under contract and "flipping the contract". Today, Howard shares the details of his Realinvestors®️ Journey, and how he gets 6-figure Paydays by wholesaling single-family houses in the Greater Washington, D.C. Region.
