This is the time of year when everyone slows down.
Holidays are around the corner.
Thanksgiving -- booze, stuffing your face, watching football all day.
Most people treat the time between Thanksgiving and Christmas as a month to "eat, drink, and be merry."
At Christmas time people usually take the entire week off and do nothing productive.
They tell themselves they are going to kick it into high gear once the new year starts, but they start the new year in the worst possible way.
Overweight from eating too much, brain foggy from boozing, lethargic from loafing around, zero momentum.
Spend time with your family...
Enjoy the holidays...
Have fun and kick back...
BUT don't shut off your brain for the next two months.
Christmas and Thanksgiving are TWO DAYS.
The other 50+ days you have left before the year is up should be focused on getting momentum heading into 2024.
•Workout
•Build up your side biz
•Learn new skills
Break the cycle. Start your new year NOW.

It's time to pull it all together and become perpetually consistent.
It's much easier than you think if you simply start.
(I'm starting again after a major distraction during the past month!)

I have a neighbor that persists in building things, but not on his own property. What do you suggest? Yes, he knows the location of the property line.

Communication is:
• 7% your words
• 38% tone of voice
• 55% body language
In other words:
• What you say is less important than how you say it
• People are persuaded by attitude and appearance
• People believe what they see before they believe what they hear
"If you believe in yourself
and you're good at what you do,
and you know that you are
and you have no doubts,
The thought alone and believing it
will make it happen for you."
~Tina Turner (RIP & Thank you!)

You must be comfortable in mentoring and coaching yourself before even thinking of doing it for others.

If something is on your heart
go ahead and say it.
Time never stands still.
If you open up,
others will follow.

Trying to get back into the flow.
Stay with it if at all possible.
Starting again can be a struggle, but worth it!

Words are powerful, so choose carefully.
And remember, do not accept negative ones spoken over you.
Refuse to sit back and let life happen.
Instead, get actively involved in your own destiny!

The IKEA Effect:
People tend to overvalue items they created themselves.
Remember that the effort you put into creating something doesn't always reflect the true value or quality.
Seek external evaluation and feedback to get an honest perspective of your work.

The Creator's Journey isn't just about building a vision.
It's about:
• Showing up & being seen,
• Choosing for yourself & your worth,
• Connecting w/ kindred spirits.
All of the above heals the ways & times
we were shamed & blamed
for doing all of the above in the past.
You have to allow friends to make their own decisions
Even when you're sure it will take them down a precarious path.
Everyone learns by doing and by playing with fire.
I've talked until I'm blue in the face.
Now it's time to step back and be quiet.
