Begin Again
No more beating myself (and yourself!) up - every breath, every moment is a fresh start.
Begin again.
That's what my yoga instructor, Peter Walters reminds me to do with every new breath.
(Me on the island of Kauai on my trip to Hawaii in 2022)
It's been a busy couple of weeks, and with 2 new group coaching programs I'm running on Tues, Wed and Thurs nights that make my work day end at 8pm, I've been a little low on time.
I could beat myself up for not posting daily on LinkedIn and Substack, and not having time to engage.
Or, I could just decide that today is a new day, and I'm going to start posting again.
I could beat myself up for not having time to DM people, engage with other people's posts, or implement every strategy that Darren McKee and Alex Lindahl so generously mention.
Or, I could realize that it's a privilege to not have to implement every strategy and still be busy and be in high demand from clients and potential clients.
It's important to me to show up on LinkedIn and Substack because I want to share of myself, and make it easy for people to get inspired and take action by reading one of my posts.
It's also important to me that I fill my own cup and cultivate being an awesome human being first, not a burned out human doing trying to hit a production quota.
LinkedIn will still be here, and if I missed posting for a week, it just means that some of my older content from a handful of days ago will get a chance to get some additional love.
(Me on a beautiful beach in Honolulu. My Mom is an awesome Instagram boyfriend, especially in 2022 when I was hopelessly single!)
(I could have re-purposed some older content, but that didn't feel genuine, because I'm a different person than when I posted 6 months ago.)
I'd love your thoughts on this:
How do you balance the rigor and discipline of wanting to post regularly with the fact that it's not always humanly possible?
