"It's not too late to write your best story." đ ~Bryan Hutchinson
Itâs almost the end of June...can you believe it? Â How are your big goals going for the year?
Itâs okay if you havenât gotten as far as you wanted. Thatâs pretty common for most goals. We set them and then life happens: đ
You have a big move.
Work gets crazy.
You get sick and your whole schedule gets knocked off. Â Been there.
So much can happen and before you know it, July is here and you havenât made it as far as you thought you would. Â
I am right there with you. Â While I had plans to write twice a month and really get into a bit of a routine, life and everything else seemed to get in the way. Â Some months I was able to meet my goals, others I just couldnât seem to get into a groove. Can you relate?
This week, I was able to sit down and write some answers to journaling questions. By hand. Â âđž Afterward, my hand hurt and I had flashbacks to taking all the notes in school. But I did it - and it felt really good.
Now Iâm not saying that I am gonna write every day, but I took a baby step, which is a start. Â And I realized that I missed writing with just a pen and a notebook, so I may need to add that to my process.
How about you? How are those side hustle goals coming? Can you take a baby step this week to get closer to achieving them?
With that in mind, Iâve created something special for you: the Side Hustle Mentorship program.  You and I work together for 30 days to on your side hustle.  It kicks off with a 60-minute call where weâll set a plan for the next month. Then youâll have audio and text message access to me for any questions, pep talks or advice while you are working your plan.  Side Hustle BFF in your pocket! đŚ¸đžââď¸
It may seem late in the year but if youâre still excited to start your side hustle and pursue that writing, coaching or speaking business thatâs been on your mind, now is the timeâŚ

This --> "Your teeny, tiny goal should be your actual, real, goal. You get full credit when you reach it and itâs 100 percent fine if you have days or weeks or months where you never go beyond it."
