Happy Holidays
🌟Weekly Inspiration🌟
Happy Holidays to all ⭐.
LTWL is going to take a break for the rest of the year!
These were my reflections last year and they still ring true for me!
I thought I’d share a few of my 2023 takeaways from what I’ve learned throughout this process of writing to you each week.
See you in 2024 ❤️!
1. Doing something every week is discipline—and it felt good for me to be consistently disciplined in this way. Being disciplined is not easy.
2. Being on the lookout for wisdom in my family life or work life each week changed my outlook.
3. Altruism feels good. I did this parenting inspiration newsletter for free, just because…
4. Learning to quiet my mind and ask myself “What stands out?” about the past week was hugely valuable.
5. I became more of a critical thinker.
6. Sometimes clients or my own family inspired my writing and it felt good to share my piece with them. Everyone enjoys being recognized for generating insight or wisdom.
7. Cultivating my writing practice was a joy. Honing my voice in this way felt great.
8. My readership self-selects to people who are thoughtful, sensitive, intelligent, and engaged humans.
9. I’m terrible at technology and social media—thank goodness for Diana, my Virtual Assistant, who made these newsletters look lovely each week. Being authentic to myself and writing about my insights feels right for me. I do not need to worry about not keeping up in a way that doesn’t naturally fit me.
10. A new challenge brings vitality and purpose to one’s daily life.
