I am several things and all these things want my 100% but I heard something the other day. It was, if you’re everything to everyone, you become nothing. So maybe I don’t have a completed storefront, I started one and I will continue to add to it over time. I don’t have a fully running nonprofit, but we’ve founded and maintained one (side note: that’s one of the hardest parts), I don’t have my BA but I have my Associate’s in Psych. I’m still going. I’m still here tinkering and progressing. I know you want me to finish and publish the damn book, I do too. I know you want a program tossed together and up and running, I do too. But I’m one human who lives in a world where burnout is a rite of passage. Honestly, I’m not interested in entering into anything that demands burnout for me to excel. No thank you. I’m taking my slow mornings. I’m serving my community in ways that make me and those around me feel loved, seen, and heard. And I’m prioritizing my values. This is the closest to free, I’ve ever felt.
My affirmation today (as a cap rising): I don’t need to be productive to feel worthy. Rest is productive and I’m always worthy.
What’s the latest with you?
