Day 3,446

Growth:

Funny how little we actually need. In an ongoing focus on “Less, but more” this year I’ve been keeping this mindset right in front of me. This evening as I pack for a work trip I am realizing it is even more true than I’d expected!

Appreciation:

Throughout the past couple of days I’ve had to be much more intentional on how my time has been spent. This has been tiring for sure, but it’s been an awesome reminder of staying focused in the areas which are the most beneficial. With no time for the superficial I’ve had to ask for more help, delegate more, say no to more things, and be focused on the long term goals. I’m worn out, but in a good cause, and with more productivity than usual!

Presence:

With a nonstop day again running from hitting the road at 5:30am and not getting home until 12 hours later I was able to stay more present than usual as I kept my goal of “Be Present” in the forefront of my mind. At one point I paused to enjoy the ride, shutting off my audiobook, turning off my work brain, turning up music, and then enjoying the ride. Listening to Seminole Wind by John Anderson was perfect with all of the ongoing destruction of our National Park system.

Thanks!!!
