On my way to pick up the middles from Nature School, I stopped at the store. I bought some notebooks for journaling and almost got a new LEGO set, in violation of my self-imposed (and therapist-supported) ban on buying or building new sets.
Scary Septembers
This week brought a renewed focus on the importance of tending to my mental health.
Living in reality
My life is filled with impossible contradictions. This week brought one of those to the forefront for me.
Mentally healthy ownership
How do I break down my ego without breaking down my spirit?
Neglected and abandoned
What another rollercoaster of a week this was for me. My emotions surged from confidence and excitement at the road ahead to near utter despair at our current situation.
Practicing ownership
In addition to being an emotional roller coaster, this week was a wake up call for me. It was a good exercise in extreme ownership. And I saw clearly where I need to improve.
🧠#113: Conducting and speaking
I had a powerful experience yesterday jumping in to do unexpected things in unexpected ways.
🧠#112: Emotional honesty
This week I relearned the lesson that handling challenging situations requires emotional honesty.
🧠#111: Caring for our selves
During a symptomatic week, I learned how to care for myself better—to view my past and future selves as someone else.
🧠#110: Hierarchy of stress
I was reminded this week of the possibility and importance of allowing seemingly contradictory ideas to both be true. I can be struggling AND doing well at the same time.
