Desire Wednesday 8.11.21 - Curveballs

I’ve been thrown a lot of curve balls lately. It would be easy for me to just power down. However I’ve decided that the best way through a problem is right through. Well, that and tons of direct communication, being open to creative solutions and releasing perfection.

I ran out of time yesterday with my bi-monthly Gratituesday post. I started it, but just could not get it finished by 8PM when I end my work day. In past weeks, I blamed my poor time management and just posted nothing. However, this morning I realized I had a back up. Desire Wednesday and Celebration Thursday - two weekly list option I have not used since October 2018. In fact I changed the use of Celebration to Victory around that time, too.

So as I caught the curve ball, I also released the frustration and the sense of failing. And then I reflected on the good, dusted off Desire Wednesday and created my Weekly Lists. Care to join me? Awesome! The comment section is always open below to question or share. Off we go!
