The holidays can make us forget the simple truth: life shines when our passions do. We open with a vivid image—a decorated tree—and use it to rethink how we treat our creative spark. Instead of saving the best of ourselves for “when there’s time,” we talk about what changes when we hang our passions front and center: more energy, clearer identity, and a ripple effect that lifts the people around us.
Greg digs into the real blockers that keep the box closed: fear of judgment, the myth of not being good enough, and the perfectionism that argues for flawless or nothing. You’ll hear why imperfect efforts still matter, how small starts lead to momentum, and why ten protected minutes can be enough to restart a dormant dream. We share practical prompts to find your “ornaments”—the pursuits that make your eyes light up—by tracking flow, curiosity, and calm rather than chasing grand goals or public approval.
We also explore the social impact of joy. When you bake the cookies, write the verse, or post the sketch, your courage grants permission for someone else to try. That’s how cultures change at home and in communities: one honest act at a time. By the end, you’ll have a clear challenge to decorate your life like you mean it—dust off an old passion, start where you are, and let the magic be messy, human, and yours.
