Welcome to the end of week 2!! Nice work making it here. I know for me personally I tend to look at the ways in which I feel or wish I would have done more and that tends to cloud the success and progress I did make. If that’s you, give yourself some grace. If you wanted to take ten steps this week and you took 2. You are still 2 steps closer than you were last week. 

We have been trained to “throw the baby out with the bath water” in our thinking and in how we set expectations. Real change happens when grace meets ownership. You can take ownership without requiring a robotic sense of adherence. Life is a living, moving, breathing flow – and there nothing robotic about that. 

That kind of thinking puts fake standards on real people and crushes them under the disappointment of “failed” attempts to keep it up. 

Friendly reminder – next week will be your second chance to plan an activity that you journaled about the last two weeks. 

Until next week starts – give yourself the space to just be, and not have to “do”. You deserve it!
