Thank you for including me, lovely! What a generous gesture! I was somehow not able to tag you in my note but wanted to celebrate you here once more for hitting this incredible milestone of 500 subs and also the beautiful reflections on March 💛
Your point on getting started is so spot on - it's great advice to get started and thousand times better than not doing anything, but to keep going is even harder.
Thank you for writing this - I am in a similar journey of un-learning/learning to rest without guilt, be ambitious and be content, be a human being and not human doing :)

That is so true Chhavi! It's a trade-off I struggle with so much in my life as well with a full time job and also professional degree exams on my plate throughout the year. Thank you for sharing this amazing essay! I have added it to my reading list💛

Thank you so much for your encouraging words Mary! Here's hoping that we all continue to learn and grow in the best possible way in our respective journey's✨
Love your advice about starting over any time!! I totally agree
Thank you Maria!
It indeed is that simple, and we always tend to forget the simpler things as we let the challenging parts of the day take over.
Lovely. Reminds me of: “Patience is also a form of action.” (Auguste Rodin)
Thank you sharing this beautiful quote Matthew!

Defining and setting your own cadence is crucial to achieving whatever goal you desire.
It’s all too easy to assume that you should automatically get to somewhere because X did it that amount of time.
Better to be going in the right direction, slowly than the wrong direction, quickly.
Well said!✨
Comparison gets us nowhere, sooner or later we have to accept that our path is our own and we are allowed to set its pace!
