One step towards success...

...should be to not let yourself down.


Howdy!


It has been exactly a week since I have last written.


One whole week without evening opening my laptop.


Holy shit I did it.


I have told myself before that I would go computer-less for a week... and failed.


So this time, I was not going to let myself down again.


It is a tone I want to set going into another year.

To stop letting myself down.


Most times like this, it shows up in little ways.


Little defeats that only seem to occur within my mind.


Where I told myself I would do one thing, then I either don't do it... or I get distracted and do something completely different.


It is part of being human.


So I know it is happening to you as well.


Let's do our best to stop letting it happen in 2022!


Our true success lies at the other end of dwindling down the amount of times we let ourselves down.

Btw, going a week without a computer was awesome.You should do it sometime!


I knew I was never meant to sit at a desk and stare at screens when I left the corporate world. But as an entrepreneur, my laptop/iPad are literally my home base for everything. So at first, I felt off. Yet, I kept telling myself that presence was the most important thing for ME in that moment. The times I get sucked into a wormhole of my phone/laptop is typically not a conscious choice by me. I stuck to making conscious/intentional choices during the trip.


One of my goals is to build systems that are so efficient, I spend less and less time every year on laptops, and more time outside in the world doing the things I love.


Last week was a step in that direction and I am proud of myself for it!


What step can you take this week that will set you up for success as you enter the New Year?

p.s. I am grateful I was able to take a week to chill out. I am fully aware not everyone is fortunate enough to do so.
