Looking forward to tonight's call

Take a moment and think about one thing in your life this year that firmly landed in the "didn't work" column (big or small). Your Challenge: Instead of judging it, acknowledge that it served its purpose by showing you what to avoid. Now, propose one small, intentional creative pivot for it. This isn't about fixing everything; it's about seeing failure as data. Write down the small change (the new medium, the new routine, the new mindset) you will adopt to make that area more joyful and sustainable in the new year.

This morning I walked my daughter to school. It doesn't happen as much as it used to since she usually walks with friends. On the way we had a great conversation. I started reliving my walks to high school with firends decades ago and relaying how we used to shake trees to release the frost. My daughter was more focused on the tightening of her face due to the cold and I became aware of this for myself. I welcomed the cold, the tightening of my face, how this moment with my daughter made it all worth it. It was the highlight of my day. In the past it would have faded into the business of life, but now I am more aware of the "textures' in my day to day and how they flow together

When you finally hit that flow state, the energy is electric. This week’s theme is about learning how to harness that feeling of creative momentum. It’s not about waiting for inspiration to strike; it’s about recognizing that every small win—every client smile, every new community member, every finished project—is fuel. You don't have to restart the engine every day. You just have to lean into the existing speed and let one small, intentional success power your next massive action. 5-Minute Moment: Think about a small win you had in the last two weeks (it could be finishing a chore, having a great conversation, or anything that gave you a little boost of energy). Your Challenge: Comment that small win. Now, identify the very next, smallest step you need to take on your biggest current goal (the workshop, the installation, a difficult email). Use the energy from the "small win" to propel you through that next tiny step. You're not starting from scratch; you’re using found momentum.
