Well, well, well ... Here we are with the first two weeks of Q2 nearly under our belts ... Come on in, and fess up! How has your first quarter gone? How will you tackle the next? Still failing to launch, or is it smooth sailing for you? Me? Well, it's complicated...
From the front to back, well, is you feelin' that? Put one hand up, can you repeat that? Tryna tank my year, see I don't need that ...
Now that we're all caught up, Happy National Quitters Day!!!
The Lunar New Year is upon us once again, which (if you don't know) is like, only the biggest holiday of the year for approximately half the planet. But if you're like me, and won't be lighting firecrackers, or dancing in the street with silk dragons, as awesome as that would actually be, you can certainly use this time of year to check in with yourself. My new year starts January 1st, but I like to use the time between then and now to sort of test out some ideas I've cooked up for how to show up for the next 12 months. Who am I going to be this year? How am I going to navigate the months, and challenges ahead? What do I wish to accomplish? How do I want to feel?

I don't know about anyone else, but I've had the hardest time getting into the "swing" of this here new year. I'm sure the invasion of Ukraine, and the fact that my family has extended family and friends in, around, and from the affected areas isn't exactly helping ... But even without the chaos of war constantly looming in my mind, it's been incredibly difficult for me to get motivated for anything, which is pretty strange for me, because typically I'm all: Let's plan it! Review it! Make a list (many lists)! And check them way more than twice ... But I just can't, like, get there ... Which is madness in itself, because I have everything I need, and arguably more, and yet, I'm just here in this weird purgatory. I mean, I haven't even done my 2021 wrap-up yet.
