📅 Daily Check-in - March 20, 2026 💭 Reflection: "Working on worksheets and commitment letter - pretty amazing process. I'm still having technical issues in that this check in is dated for yesterday and I'll title it differently when I post it. One small win - one of my subtractions is to defer my neurographica drawing - so I put my books, supplies, drawing paper all in a bin so I now have room for more important things like this work and developing my business. Felt good and my work space is only a little distracting with a few things I'll more tomorrow." 📊 Wellbeing Scores: 😊 Happiness: 9/10 ⚡ Energy: 8/10 🎯 Focus: 8/10 😌 Calmness: 7/10 🌙 Sleep Quality: 9/10 🔥 Motivation: 7/10 ⭐ Average: 8/10 ✅ Activities from yesterday: 🛏️ Good Sleep 💧 Stayed Hydrated 🌬️ Breathwork 🌿 Grounding 🚶 Walk 🤸 Stretching 🥗 Healthy Eating 🍺 No Alcohol ☕ No Late Caffeine 💊 Took Supplements 🥦 Ate Vegetables 🧘‍♂️ Meditation 📝 Journaling 💚 Gratitude Practice 💭 Affirmations ✨ Positive Mindset 🌄 No Screentime in Morning 📚 Reading 🧠 Learning 👥 Quality Time 🤝 Helped Someone ❤️ Date Night 🍽️ No Phone at Dinner 👂 Active Listening

I mean...I'll just post it. F-c-! Because I hate committing to committing and now it will be public, this thing I began and am afraid I won't pick up like I am saying I will and then I will look like a big booby-head and crap! It is scary. That is why I picked that moment in the Matrix when Trinity has crashed through a window and is pointing guns at it, sure that the Agents chasing her would be right there. She is frozen with fear. After a few beats she says, "Get up Trinity. Get up." And she does. "Just wrote my Commitment Letter and I'm honestly shaking a little. Here's what hit me: I'm not at the beginning. I've spent years building the foundation for two businesses and I've been frozen at 80% — afraid to cross the finish line. My Big Rock is getting my Etsy shop LIVE with real listings. Mock-ups are not a wall. I am almost there. When it gets hard, my comeback protocol is three words: GET UP, TRINITY. 🖤 Let's do this." https://youtu.be/cGeoB8czHo8?si=StwLCErw6BR1gPrh

Crying like a baby! What a wonderful experience this is I'm blown away by the cohort - the sharing, the comments, the support; by SAGE, by Jim and this extraordinary platform he's built! I'll likely cry over it a couple more times before I post some or all. OMG.

Because I have so many places spinning at once, I knew before Jim even mentioned it, that I would likely have to subtract things from my life in order to pursue what really matters. One of the things I am working on subtracting is noticing and spending time on crap that doesn’t matter or isn’t important enough to rob me of my time and energy. I have had a pattern of letting things bother me that don’t ultimately warrant paying attention to them or trying to fix them. For instance, I ordered 2 yards of fabric but it came to me 2” short. I realized quickly, after feeling frustrated about being “ripped off” that the time and energy to “set it right” was not worth the time and effort that it would take away from something that does matter to me. I talked a bout this with Sage and here are some areas she suggests to look for time/energy wasters: Energy Drains Worth Examining The Correction Impulse (the pattern you already named) - Fixing other people's grammar, facts, or logic (especially online) - Returning low-cost items that are "close enough" - Writing detailed reviews or complaints about minor issues - Re-explaining yourself when someone misunderstood but the stakes are low - Setting the record straight in conversations where no one's mind will change The Justice/Fairness Loop - Following up on small injustices that won't be resolved satisfyingly - Mentally rehearsing what you'd say to someone who was wrong or unfair - Reading comments sections or news stories that trigger your "that's not right" alarm - Feeling responsible for pointing out hypocrisy or inconsistency in others The "Doing It Right" Tax - Over-researching purchases, decisions, or plans before acting - Redoing something that was 85% good because it wasn't perfect - Spending extra time making an email, text, or post "just right" when casual would've been fine - Organizing or setting up systems for things that don't actually need a system The Obligation Drain - Saying yes to things because you "should," not because you feel a genuine pull - Maintaining relationships out of guilt rather than mutual energy - Keeping career "hats" on out of duty rather than desire - Feeling you need to justify rest or creative time with productivity

📅 Daily Check-in - March 18, 2026 💭 Reflection: "Right now I feel... behind! I was out today to the New York Botanical Garden Orchid exhibit with a couple old friends. I'm very proud of myself for sharing about Harmony ADHD and my journey. I'm ordinarily move private about my life and so I got a lot of encouragement. I almost cancelled but we'd had these plans for a while and I know the class was recorded and I'll plan on being caught up befoe the next class.
