🧠Weekly Mind Sweep #104| Curator’s Perspective | 2,080
There's something about the arrival of a new calendar, notebook, or year that's more invigorating than a double shot of espresso!
It's the feeling of unlimited possibility. Coffee has this effect on me, too.
This can also feel overwhelming—so much possibility, so little time!
Where do I even begin? If you're neurospicy like me, you feel this to your core.
I'm listening to Four Thousand Weeks by Oliver Burkman, and each time I turn the Barnes and Noble app on or say the book's name out loud, I'm hit with the stark reality of just how short 4,000 weeks truly are! When did I blink?
As I reflect on the turning of the calendar to 2024, I am vividly aware of some significant milestones ahead:
It becomes one year closer to a milestone birthday for me.
It is the year my identical twins turn 18 and graduate from high school.
Chickbook Creative will turn FOUR!
Marking that I've surpassed 100 weekly MindSweep emails!
My Grandmom will turn 87. If I live to be 87 years old, I may only have 2,080 weeks left of opportunity.
So, I choose:
To greet each morning with gratitude that I've opened my eyes again to live another day. And have more of my favorite Karma coffee!
Beginning each day with a blank page of possibility. Or at least until the coffee kicks in!
Mindfully surround myself with like-hearted humans, personally and professionally. Because who needs heartless humans, right?
To reflect daily on how I've spent this precious, unpromised time, ensuring it aligns with who I choose to be and how I choose to show up in the world. Me. I choose to show up as me.
Move slower with aligned action – because sprinting towards your dreams is so last year. Look for that one percent step and remember that big things happen one day at a time. And I've got big plans!!
Two thousand eighty weeks are not guaranteed.
As I learn, grow, and well...age, I've come to appreciate this feeling every morning when I open my eyes, even with the creaks and groans.
In the past 2,704 weeks, I've also become quite the expert at practicing self-compassion when life doesn't feel fabulous. A deep breath, a sprinkle of humor, and let's begin again!
I wish you a new day of purpose, growth, and mindful moments. Oh, and a healthy dose of neurospiciness!
