This is me, snuggling my dog
You did it!
Six weeks of building a new relationship with your focus. That deserves a moment. Pausing to celebrate locks in new habits — and honestly, it's just fun.
I'll go first.
I recently came through one of those intense stretches — constant travel for work and pleasure, back-to-back client work, and time with people I love scattered in between. To move through it calmly and collected, I put everything we've talked about into practice.
When it was time to write, all I did was write. Bags were packed days before travel. My to-do list was sharp — what must get done, and a separate list of nice-to-do if time allowed. I used plane rides the way I recommend…no one knows where you are, no one can reach you. Maximum focus.
And because of that focus, I still walked my dogs, made it to the gym, ate real meals, and watched The Pitt. I was fully present at every work event, every client meeting, every family visit.
I'm proud of how I navigated it. I hope you're proud of yourself, too.
I'm celebrating with sleep, vintage buying and selling, dinner with my husband, and dog snuggles.
What about you? Even if you changed just one small thing over these six weeks — celebrate. You deserve it.
