Thursday Press #6: I got a hair up my 🍑...
[14 OCT 2021] and took freakin' action! (you can, too)
I WAS SITTING ON MY COUCH, LATE SUNDAY NIGHT, WHEN I GOT A HAIR UP MY 🍑
🚨 weeoooweeooo! it's an inbox checkpoint!
When's the last time you celebrated an accomplishment?
It can be as small as sending that tough email or getting amazing client feedback, or as big as hitting your next income goal or filing your LLC (hey, that's me! 🙋♀️)
I was sitting on my couch, late Sunday night when I – as my Southern mother would say – got a hair up my butt and decided to file my LLC. It took less than an hour.
2 days and a bank draft later, my biz had a newly minted three letter upgrade. No fanfare, and so much less hassle than I had thought it would be for MONTHS.
Y'all, I had opened a Google Doc because I thought I was going to need to take notes to get through this process.
I didn't think I was a spontaneous person. There are so many things I've procrastinated and put off until the last possible moment (including writing this email at 10:51 p.m. last night).
But sometimes the energy hits ya and all of a sudden you've knocked out those 3 emails you've kept snoozing for weeks and the weight on your shoulders lifts and you can't believe you didn't do it sooner.
As our queen Glennon Doyle says, “We can do hard things.”
I'm sure you've got some hard things on your plate right now, and I know from experience that it feels easier to avoid dealing with them.
So from one recovering procrastinator to the next, I'm sending that random Sunday night burst of energy your way to help you get through whatever you're dealing with this week.
And when you're done? Don't keep rolling on to the next thing on your to-do list.
🍾 Pop a bottle, play your favorite song, do a happy dance, grab a mini KitKat from your bowl of Halloween candy that you promised you'd save for trick-or-treaters… you get the picture. Celebrate!
No Pinterest tip in this week's inbox date; I'm keeping it fast and furious while I work on something extra special for you! 👀 But in the meantime, you can check out some golden nuggets from IG. Call them the Golden 'Grams if you will. (Teddy Grahams anyone?)
