It’s Sunday. This week was not about doing more It was about doing it properly. About leading yourself instead of being hard on yourself. About giving your days structure instead of letting them run you. About being present instead of constantly chasing what is next. I have learned that growth is not loud. It is quiet adjustments. It is keeping promises to yourself. It is catching your mindset when it starts to slip. Today is not just for pleasure, it is also for honesty. What did you handle well? Where did you drift? What needs tightening up? No guilt. Just awareness. And be honest with yourself here Take the lesson with you. Leave the frustration here. Tomorrow we build again. Stronger. Calmer. Clearer. Let's share our answers and help each other

Not sure if this is helpful, and I'm sure there's many options out there. But I found this free tool to copy and paste my affirmations into. Which then turns it into audio. I listen to my affirmations while stretching each morning. Here is the link if you'd like to try it. https://voicertool.com/?utm_source=chatgpt.com

I know it's been shared in here by @Phil Clark that we decided to hop on board as well and start donating 10% of our MRR to a cause. BUT I just saw a post in @Julie Siler 's Group too giving a shout out to both THIS and OUR group talking about the Giving Games and how she too is going to be putting some towards a cause of her own! Thanks @Dan Harrison and @Alexander VandeLaar for this amazing initiative!!

I've recently started sending a dm with this short video clip a few days after a new member joins my group. Not sure if this is helpful, but I thought some of you might like to try it. I'll test it over the next couple weeks to see if it increases the response rate, after the auto dm goes out. So to be clear, we send an auto DM. And if they don't respond, we send this clip with a short message a few days later.

I was inspired to envision my perfect day while going through Dan’s modules. At first, I thought, “I pretty much already have a perfect day.” Looking back, I can’t believe how limiting that thought process was. I mostly work from home, and we homeschool, so I often felt pulled in two directions. Guilt for not being with family when I was working. Guilt for not working when I was with family. I thought long and hard about what a perfect day actually looks like, and I wanted to share it here in case what I found might inspire someone else. This is brand new, so I can’t say how sustainable it is long term — but in the short term, what I’ve found has been magic. I’m up at 4:00am (this isn’t a big deal for me — done it in the past). (Stretch, supplement, shake, etc) From there, my boy isn’t up until around 7:30am, which gives me three solid hours of focused work. We have breakfast together, hit the beach, and hang out until around 11:00am. My wife usually takes him to the library, runs errands, or does playdough, colouring, or books with him until about 2:00pm, so I’m back to work for a few more hours (with a 30min workout mixed in). Then from 2:00–7:00pm, it’s family time. We build forts, hit the pool, do Lego — just being together. At 7:00pm, it’s books and bedtime for him. My wife does most of that so I can get back to work. By 7pm, I’m back to work until 9pm. That’s pretty much it. I’m in bed by 9:30pm, which still gives me about an 8-hour workday, tons of family time, enough sleep and — most importantly — structure. For the first time in a long time, I don’t feel guilt on either side. I don’t imagine this will work for everyone. And I truly believe there are different seasons in life. My wife is pregnant, so life will drastically change in the next 3–4 months. But for now, this has been working fantastically — so I’m holding onto it. What I like about this program and this group so far is the lifestyle aspect. I’m a recovering workaholic who has realized that family is more important than… well, anything.
