Hello Reader, Our affirmation stays the same again this week: I love the person I am and the person I am becoming. You're not the same person today that you were a year ago. Are you paying attention to how you are changing? You've got to in order to ensure you really love the person you are becoming! We become different people in big and small ways every day. But it's hard to see the changes until you've been doing it for a while--at least a few months in my experience. One of the ways I'm becoming a new person is in my garden! I used to describe myself as a black thumb. Not even brown, because I didn't just struggle with plants, I killed them. All of them. Even the supposedly "easy to grow" or "impossible to kill" ones! You name it, I've probably killed it. 😂 From orchids to cacti to rosemary, nothing survived under my care. Until the last few years, when something started changing. Despite all my plant and garden failures, I refused to stop trying. (My husband even asked me to, multiple times! He was convinced I'd save money and time if I just went to the farmers' market every week instead.) I kept evaluating my garden work at the end of each summer: What went well? And about a year or so ago, I realized...I wasn't killing plants any more! For the first time ever, I even rescued plants from garden center clearance racks and nursed them back to health! I'm slowly becoming the type of person who gardens. Who gardens successfully. And I truly love that about the person I am becoming!

Time is the single most valuable thing we have. I help busy business owners get out of overwhelm to work fewer hours in their business (without sacrificing income!) so they can get back to enjoying their business and their life again.
Hey Reader, It's summer break! My husband is done teaching for the summer--he never teaches summer school because we need the break wayyyyyy more than we need that wee bit of extra money. If you have kids, they're probably out now too, or very close! Don't forget I have a short course to help you plan your very best summer: Super Successful Summer I know we have a lot planned already, and still more we're hoping to fit in. It's always a challenge to balance the fun stuff with getting extra...

Hello Reader, Our affirmation stays the same this week: I have all the time I need. Remember: If you don't have all the time you need, there are only 2 ways to create it: Delete items from your to-do list or Delegate items from your to-do list I've been thinking a lot over the past week about having all the time I need for my hobbies. As a working adult, I don't always have time for my hobbies! And my hobbies are seasonal to an extent too. I don't need nearly as much time for gardening in the...
