I want to share a little story…Last night, we had our first “s*itty first draft” conversation in a while and school doesn't even start for another 3 weeks! I won't bore you with the details of back-packs and lockers, but in the end the lesson was don't let it get you twice.
This made me think about habit changes and how sometimes if we miss a day or break a streak, we let it get us twice. Have you ever spent more time mentally beating yourself up about something than it would have taken to take one small step in the direction of getting back on track?
It happened to me this week - I forgot to do Wordle on Tuesday and broke my second longest streak, for the past 4 days I've been pissed about missing that one day! I'm letting it GET ME TWICE! (As an aside, can someone please have the Duolingo people talk to the Wordle people about streak freezes and am I the only one still doing Wordle!?)
Is there anything you are letting get you twice? If so let me be your pinky swear buddy, I'm happy to just listen or give you a tip to get back on track - so that S*itty First Draft's only get you once!
✨Ok here is your check-in, share as much or as little as you'd like (I'm happy to speak in emoji's, gifs or long sentences with no punctuation!) ✨
