The last few weeks have been challenging for me. I'm entering a space I'm unfamiliar to, so I have to keep moving forward to gain confidence and continue to grow.

@Michael Clegg I know. I've been struggling.

I am a CPA and CFP whose primary focus is on developing comprehensive retirement income strategies, along with the investment management, tax planning, and tax preparation services that support those strategies.

Just completed my first "Thinking Time" exercise is quite a while. I was introduced to this concept a few years ago when I attended a conference hosted by Keith Cunningham. His framework is slightly different, seclude yourself for 45 minutes, twice a week and ask yourself, "How might I....". Ask yourself a question, then let your mind wander. Always write down your first thoughts. This allows your brain to dig deeper to other ideas that may come to you as your writing. Not all of the ideas are good. The point is to review your ideas and many times; there's a nugget in there that will help you move forward. Thanks for mentioning this Clegg. As with many things, I do an exercise for a while and then somehow it falls off the radar.

@Michael Clegg great to hear you had a positive outcome from doing it. Great job!

@Toby Weibye thanks for sharing. Thanks for pointing out Ben's programs help create the journey or a path to something greater. It doesn't matter what the goal is or if we achieve it, did gain more clarity? Did we remove things that we don't need? Are we creating a better version of ourself?

Congratulations on 18 years of marriage ❤️
