It is not too late. You are not too old. You are right on time. And you are better than you know.

Over halfway(!!) to my 60 day what if experiment/challenge/journey
I have learned:
- It is incredibly easy to slip back into the habits and ways of being that I am trying to shed
- Time moves even faster when you’re operating in auto pilot
I have uncovered even more about myself over the past 32 days. Way too much to unpack here but I am working towards more thoughtful and detailed posts. I’m finding that in theory, it’s simple to pause and ask myself – what if….but in real life, old habits (aka, the easy way out) take over without me noticing until a week has slipped by and I’m wondering why I’m scattered and running from one thing to the next – hello this past week! However, I am recognizing patterns and behavior I want to modify and catching my detours sooner.
The good news is that I have had moments of absolute brilliance and flow. These glimpses have revealed that:
- I have plenty of time and energy to do all the things I want and need
- I am creative
- I am open
- I have self-discipline
- I am content
- I am happy
Confirming I am on the right track and that the work I am doing is absolutely what I need to be doing.
I am still deep in my boundary quagmire but I see a way forward! My current boundary resources:
