Monday Motivation - I am always in the right place at the right time for what’s meant to be.


Hello Reader,

This week we're tackling FOMO!

I am always in the right place at the right time for what’s meant to be.

My husband is working on a couple side projects: a novel & a video game.

Both of these industries can be pretty time sensitive--certain themes and genres seem to be more popular during some years than others. If you miss the window, you might be SOL.

At least...that's the way it feels to us!

Right now, both of his projects look like winners--a style or mash up of which there aren't many (or any, in one case!) out there yet. Which means he hasn't missed his window!

But that also puts a lot of pressure on him, because we don't know or have any control over when the window happens. And writing a book, or making a video game, while working full time (let alone all three things at once!!) takes a really long time.

And we've all heard the stories of the amazing product that came out just barely after a competitor and thus got mostly passed over.

That fear of missing out, of being too late, can cause a lot of anxiety. Or it can cause the opposite--a desire to give up if you think there's no point in trying. Or the worst of both: see-sawing between them!

My husband is struggling with this currently, but I've been there before. You probably have too! So, while today's affirmation is specifically designed for him (Love you babe! You better read this one! 😂), you and I can also benefit.

This week we will calm our nervous systems & FOMO by reminding ourselves 21x each day:

I am always in the right place at the right time for what’s meant to be.

❤️
