Such a good one! I love the personal examples you wove in here and will definitely take some of your advice to heart. And hell yes on your tips. All of them. I'm inspired (though not off IG quite yet!).
Thanks, Cecily. Your feedback means a lot, especially since you know I'm working through writer's block and rethinking my entire approach to writing. Keep me posted on your practices and how I can support you.
I’ve been tracking those moments of project pivots or frustrations and whether I can control it, influence it, or must accept it. I’ve found this help in two ways. On one hand, it reminds me of the agency I actually do have as these waves come. On the other hand, by naming those times that must be accepted, it makes it a bit easier to do that. And then seeing it written down as I go back to this list helps remind and reinforce that it’s not something worth dwelling on.
Josh, I always appreciate your thoughtful design of your days and life. Your trio reframe—control, influence, and acceptance — is one I'm going to take on, too. Thank you! And thanks for letting me include you in this post in a few ways :)
Leaving social media and making time for real conversations. Looking for learning experiences outside of work. I went to adult Norwegian language camp and met new friends from across the country who share my heritage.
Love it, Wendy! An adult Norwegian language camp sounds like so much fun! I'm craving a camping experience like when I was young, as summer approaches. Thanks for sharing and brave on leaving social media
