Mindset of the day

submitted 15 days ago • 0 comments

Weekend thought: Creating when the world feels broken isn't denial-it's resistance. It's saying: "Despite everything, beauty still matters. Connection still matters. Expression still matters." That's not naive. That's courage. What creative act of courage are you working on this weekend?

I can't post as if everything's normal when it doesn't feel that way. I've been trying to draft the same newsletter for months, scrapping it over and over until I realized: authenticity means acknowledging the struggle. Sometimes naming the difficulty is the first step toward moving through it.

Everyone wants a guide, even if they say they don’t. I know I do. The danger is when you rely TOO much on the guide and not on yourself.

Went to do the “morning business” and took a book instead of my phone. That little tweak starts the day off in such a better light. Been really noticing how sad my tech makes me lately. Words are better.
