Day 15: Sunday, October 26, 2025:
“Do one thing every day that scares you.” – Eleanor Roosevelt
Big Idea: Courage compounds through small risks.
Action Step: Do one thing today that stretches your comfort zone.
Reflection: It sounds silly but I risked going out to the dollar tree knowing that I am down to my last dollars. I am hopeful and now with my new resume, I feel as though something is coming soon. It has to. I saw this today from IG (energygrowthhub) and wanted to write it down...
1 Year of Therapy ~ Cliff Notes
You really do become what you think.
If you feed your mind trash, you’re gonna feel like trash.
Emotions... they are not problems they're signals.
Fear shows you what really matters.
Anger tells you what boundaries got crossed.
Anxiety means that you’re stuck in the future, and it’s a reminder that you need to come back to the present.
Motivation won’t change your life. Habits will. When you change your habits, everything shifts.
Your past, that is a chapter, not your whole story.
Learn from it, but stop living it.
When someone triggers you, pause. Because that’s a mirror showing you what’s still unhealed inside of you.
Control. Total illusion. The only real power that you have in this ... is you and your choices.
And at the end of the day, it’s simple...
Your thoughts shape you,
your habits build you,
and your choices define you.
Day 16: Monday, October 27, 2025:
“Don’t count the days, make the days count.” – Muhammad Ali
Big Idea: Impact matters more than time.
Action Step: Choose one task today that will make it meaningful.
Reflection: I reached out again to Carla asking if I could stop by and she said she wasn't feeling good. Typical but I want her to know that I am here for her and that I am worried about her. I remember when people reached out to me and Zach would say, well at least they care.
Day 17: Tuesday, October 28, 2025:
“Happiness depends upon ourselves.” – Aristotle
Big Idea: Happiness is chosen, not given.
Action Step: Write three things you are grateful for today.
Reflection: That's easy. My kids, our house and my health.
Day 18: Wednesday, October 29, 2025:
“Fall seven times and stand up eight.” – Japanese Proverb
Big Idea: Resilience is the true definition of success.
Action Step: Reflect on one time you bounced back stronger.
Reflection: Ummm, my whole life. Literally my whole life. I am the definition of a super ball. Unfortunately a super ball doesn't lose air. Because I feel deflated. People ALWAYS tell me it's a set back and you always bounce back and get back on your feet. (Paul Gates). I am the master of it and I am sick of it.
Day 19: Thursday, October 30, 2025:
“In the middle of every difficulty lies opportunity.” – Albert Einstein
Big Idea: Problems hide opportunities.
Action Step: Write one hidden opportunity in your current struggle.
Reflection: Stop procrastinating and remember you can do hard things. Hidden opportunity is find a job that I WANT to do and not have to do. Learn from past experiences and shut my mouth. Stop talking so much. KISS method.
Day 20: Friday, October 31, 2025:
“Success is not final, failure is not fatal:
It is the courage to continue that counts.” – Winston Churchill
Big Idea: Success is a process, not a destination.
Action Step: Identify one lesson from a recent failure.
Reflection: I had a couple of cancellations from people who were a complete nightmare to deal with. I stopped answering their text and phone calls b/c they were so needy and blaming us for their failures securing jobs. I knew it in my heart that they would cancel but didn't think they would dispute the charges as unauthorized charges. Total BS and I sent Jason a note with messages attached and that we built them a website. Clearly they knew they were charge but according to Jason they almost always lose when going against a dispute.
Lesson learned: don't waste your time - send them all to Jessica. Secondly, don't put your head in the sand. Be authentic and true. Do what you said you'd do even if it is uncomfortable. People will respect you more and you will rebuild your reputation as someone who can be relied upon.
Day 22: Saturday, November 1, 2025:
“A year from now you may wish you had started today.” – Karen Lamb
Big Idea: Delayed action only delays results.
Action Step: Start one small step on something you’ve postponed.
Reflection: I have been postponing a couple of things. I did leverage AI and redid my resume. Now LI. I am stuck and throwing all kinds of messages out to the universe. So I am getting nowhere. I need a clear path to a job. Or at least a vertical. A part of me wants to get out of legal and IG and the other part of me thinks it's what I know and my experience is aligned. And it's an Oppty to repair my reputation. But I really don't want to bump into everyone I know too. I am torn. So that's why I am going to focus on AI and strategic partnerships. I am taking a bunch of classes and will dedicate my time to being a student for the next couple of weeks and focus entirely on bettering myself. So now that I am writing this, I just answered my own question on what to do. I will learn AI and continue to apply for all jobs and God will help make those decisions for me. The universe and I will work together to open a door this birthday month as I start a new chapter in my book of this beautiful thing called Life.
