I have never (not once!!) had a bitter, sarcastic, or negative thought about you or anything you write about or do. You are pure inspiration, kindness, and humility!

Mike thankfully you don’t get to see me when I’m not at my best. But those moments happen — we are all human. Appreciate you!

this morning my nearly 4 year-old daughter gave me a look of such severe contempt after telling her “no,” that I'm pretty sure if she had access to a guillotine I would've been beheaded :)

Tarek..there have been years it has been my intention to pick a "word" for the year (all the rage apparently). One year I picked "Intentional." That year I wasn't too intentional about much so I picked it again the following year. Next year may be the same. Seriously though, I have felt as if I'm spinning my wheels trying to accomplish some things. Too many. I was overwhelmed. I sat down and made a list of them, and then broke them down into days of the week I would work on each and the little tiny steps I needed to start. It calmed my mind immediately. I think it may have been a version of SMART goals. I'm going to print off your post....and restack.

I'm quite familiar with overwhelm - trying to do everything at once. I love your new method!
