Tell me what you wanted to do

6/10 Edited to

... Read moreReflecting on what you truly want to do in life can be both challenging and rewarding. From personal experience, I’ve found that taking a moment to clearly articulate your goals not only helps in understanding your desires but also motivates you to take concrete steps towards achieving them. It’s important to ask yourself not just what you want to do on the surface, but why you want to do it — understanding the deeper reasons behind your goals can offer tremendous clarity and drive. When sharing your aspirations with others, honesty is crucial. Being open about what you want encourages genuine support and meaningful conversations. You might be surprised at how much encouragement and valuable advice can come from simply telling someone what you want to do. In practice, writing down your goals regularly and revisiting them can reinforce your commitment and keep your focus sharp. Setting small, achievable milestones along the way can transform daunting ambitions into manageable steps, reducing overwhelm and increasing your chances of success. Remember, it’s perfectly normal for your goals to evolve as you learn and grow. Flexibility combined with a clear sense of purpose can help you navigate the inevitable changes and stay aligned with what truly matters to you. Communicating this evolution to those around you further strengthens your support network and ensures everyone is on the same page. Ultimately, telling others what you want to do is about more than just sharing plans — it’s about building connections, finding accountability, and nurturing your journey towards personal fulfillment.

What Bella Was Trying To Tell Me 💜
For years, I thought communication meant words. Because Bella is mostly nonverbal, I spent so much time trying to teach communication that I almost missed the ways she was already communicating. This little ice cream trip reminded me of that again. She knew exactly where she wanted to go.

depression or burnout…how do you tell?
Burnout and depression look suspiciously similar if I’m not paying close attention!! A lot times symptoms look the same: not taking good care of myself, feeling exhausted all the time, etc. Noticing the difference early has been huge because the way I show up for myself looks really different d
