Day 3,725

Growth:

Fortitudine Vincimus – By Endurance We Conquer

Appreciation:

Tonight I’m especially grateful for taking the time to take notes while I read. Several years ago I started to type up some of the quotes which really struck home for me. I’d read the quote, type it up in my notes app on my phone, and go back to review all of the quotes from time to time.

This evening as I continue to work on my goals and plan for next year I went back to those quotes for inspiration. Success!!! Not only did I have a rush of insights fed into my brain, but I hit the nail on the head with the quote that will likely be my 2026 theme… The quote above.

Presence:

Taking the time to enjoy silence, re-reading notes and quotes, pausing to consider that wisdom shared by others. In those moments of reviewing the notes my mind was filled with so many thoughts. Memories of when I read the quotes initially. Reminders of how I’ve lived into (or lived against) those words of advice. Each nugget of knowledge an opportunity to grow my brain, to encourage growth. That was an extremely gratifying use of time this evening!

Thanks!!!
