I am Sarah Jane Case and this is Eniagram and coffee.

Welcome back everyone and happy

Tuesday. In today's episode we are going to take the concept

of curiosity over discipline and turn it into a practice but first today's rose bud and

thorn the rose for today is that my husband and I entered this microfiction

contest. Basically, it's a short piece of fiction you do 250 words and we got to round two and

zone of genius. This is just not what I do and not what I do well. It feels very tedious and it is definitely my thorn.

Okay, let's dive into today's episode.

If you haven't already listened to the episode from yesterday titled Curiosity Over Discipline.

I encourage you to head over there and check it out first because it's going to give you

some needed context for today's exercise.

But as a refresher, I'm making the case that when it comes to lifestyle
