This week's lightbulb moment
Yes, No, and Maybe Walk Into a Bar...
You’ve got obligations. That’s why it’s so freeing to say no to things. You’re taking back your space, your life, your time. But equally important—and what made me Oprah “lightbulb” yesterday—is the question: What are you saying yes to? All that open space and free time needs filling. If you don’t decide, someone will do it for you. What will you say yes to today, tomorrow, this year?
This one sentence from James Clear cuts through all of the “I wish I was…” and “But why don’t I have…” excuses. Not gonna lie, it can lead to some uncomfortable truths.
Hush Little Baby, Don't Say a Word
I just put on my giant, noise-canceling headphones, ready to fire up Shawn Mendes or DJ Khaled’s new single with Beyonce (thanks for the tip, Aeg!). But now I’m sitting with the cord dangling by my side because it seems all I needed...was to cancel out the noise. Hoping you can also find a moment of quiet today.
Thank you for reading.
Love, Kara
