"Doing the best at this moment puts you in the best place for the next moment." ~Oprah
It’s MAY! Which is kinda crazy because I feel like April just flew by and here in Chicago we’ve definitely been making up for lost weather with the rain (and the snow!) but all in all, I still love this time of the year.
This week I’ve been fluctuating between bouts of overwhelm because I want to do #allthethings but I also need to take it easy. As if I didn’t have enough to do, I started working on the National Ninja Writer’s Month (#Naniwrimo) 30 day challenge because I really want to start writing as a daily habit. So far, we are 4 days in and it’s going well and I got a blog post out of it! Will I write for all 31 days? I’m honestly not sure as this month is pretty jam packed but I can promise to do my best. And sometimes that’s all we can do right? 🙌🏾
In other news, I’m taking two courses focused on my business this month over the next 6-8 weeks and I could use your help! I’m trying to get some clarity around what my dream business looks like and what to offer. Could use your advice, input, suggestions on any of the following:
What do you admire most about me?
What do you think I do best?
What do you come to me to help you with?
If I have already helped you, what are some ways that I've done that?
Are there certain resources/strategies that I've shared that you like in particular?
Hit reply and let me know! I’d love to hear from you.
Also as a THANK YOU for responding, I’ll send you info on booking a 15-min free call for you to pick my brain on anything you think I can help you with.
On to the picks!
P.S. I ❤️ the Hamilton soundtrack but did not realize they had the instrumental versions. I’m loving this one especially.

ALL THE THINGS. With my overwhelmingness this week, this post comes right on time. I really like the idea of having early wins (#4) and will have to try to structure my days to include them more often.
Don’t try to create and analyze at the same time — seths.blog
Short but sweet and really gives you something to think about. I think this is why I struggle with writing because I'm trying to create and edit at the same time when they should really be two very different processes. What do you think?
