Apparently, I did the self-guided Commitment Letter, not the AI app. Holy cow what a difference! This is the abbreviated version, if you can believe it. Big Rocks: #1 My body — sleep and gentle morning movement. My body needs to be strong enough to carry me into the life I've dreamed of. This is how I prove, one morning at a time, that I love myself unconditionally. #2 My art — I come alive when I create. Designing, coloring, painting — that's when I am most myself. What has to change is the hiding. I will stop putting my art into the world only to snatch it back. I will let it stay. I will let me stay. The Commitment Letter: I'm here because I don't want the rest of my life to look like the last ten. I am done tolerating scraps and pittances and believing I don't deserve more — as if a mistake made years ago is a lifelong penance to be endured. I'm done watching my life waste away while the vision I've always had for myself stays locked inside me like a painting no one will ever see. I'm done being a mere shadow of my former self. I'm done making myself invisible. My nervous system is shattered as a result. I commit to showing up consistently no matter how haggered I feel, completing check-ins despite my protests, doing the exercises no matter how late I may be, engaging with the community regardless of how naked and vulnerable I feel. And, when it gets hard, I will return to my Big Rocks (my future me 💃), do my protocol once I figure out what it is, and will eventually remember why I started even if I have misplaced my thoughts and notes on the matter. I don't need to put on a happy face to be visible. I just need to stop disappearing 🥰

My Big Rocks for these six weeks: **Create Before I Comply** — my creative work gets my mornings, before my day job gets a single drop of my best energy. And **Ship Before It's Ready** — done letting perfectionism keep my best work locked inside me. I've spent years giving everything to work I don't care about and leaving scraps for what actually matters. My nervous system has been screaming at me to change this. I'm finally listening. 🖊️I'm going to start treating the day job like the side hustle and doing what really matters by devoting time to my creative endeavors before I ever clock in. My Full Commitment Letter (to keep myself accountable to ME.) I'm here because my nervous system has been screaming at me to change things, and I'm finally listening. For four or five years, I've been caught in the same cycle: I start a day job, I mask incredibly hard, I lean into perfectionism and people pleasing, I excel quickly — and then I burn out because I have zero real interest in the work. By the time I clock out, there's nothing left for the writing and creative work that actually matters to me. I left my last job thinking a change would fix it. It didn't. The burnout followed me because the pattern followed me. I've been giving my best energy to someone else's dream and leaving scraps for my own. I'm done tolerating that. I'm done waking up at 3am with a pit in my stomach about tasks I don't care about. I'm done holding tension in my jaw and my shoulders because I'm forcing myself through days that work against everything my brain and body need. I'm done treating my creative work like something I'll get to "if there's energy left" — because there never is. I'm done coasting through workdays I hate and then having nothing left for the writing that makes me feel alive. I'm 43 years old. I've spent decades performing a version of myself that isn't really me. I want to show up authentically in all the ways that matter — for the first time since I was a young girl.

🪨 My Big Rocks: Fitness & Business. I am here because I want change, tangible growth and a sense of achievement. The Academy Awards were this week, so I envision myself holding up the Oscar but the shiny trophy is me! 🏆 I commit to showing up, reminding myself OFTEN that progress beats perfection, and that it not admirable to prop others up, if I'm letting myself down. 🫠 When it gets hard, I will make it easy for myself to come back to the core truths and principles of this system by having them printed out and stuck on my wall. I will reach out to this community, I will breathe, take a walk outside, tend to my garden and meet friends for coffee to refill my cup. On the days I feel low, I promise to rest. I will have a guilt-free pj day and make healthy choices for my body and soul. 🙏 I understand that transformation is not linear. I will NOT carry other people's expectations by dropping my own. I commit to loving the person I am becoming, all the past and future versions of me BUT also hold space for the fragile, fierce and fabulous me right now! I will stumble. I will fall, but I'm strong enough to get back up. And I will offer an open hand to others who need it, as long as I have the capacity to do so. 💛 from Suzi

📅 Daily Check-in - March 17, 2026 💭 Reflection: One small win today... I found out that the screenplay I wrote has been selected as a Finalist in an international film festival that takes place where I live. If my script wins the award, I'll be able to participate in a table read of it with local actors in front of a crowd, which is exciting and a bit nerve-wracking all at once. Something that's bothering me is... I have had obligations that require my attention and energy the last three evenings in a row. Tonight and the next two nights will be the same. I'm feeling some dread over the lack of downtime to rest and recharge, and am definitely feeling overscheduled this week.
