Waiting for my oil change, my coffee cup is a reminder that perfectly imperfect is not a bad way to be 😉

The journey you’re on is the one you are meant to be on - in your career, in your relationships, in everything. 

Stay focused on your goals, on your ambitions and learn along the way. 

Nobody was born knowing it all or having it all so stop striving for perfection and strive for getting things done in a way that works for you!

Someone is having a case of the Mondays. How do you “look at” Mondays?

Are they a fresh start or a bane of your existence?

This is the extent of my level of participation today. 

Not every day are you racing for that finish line and that is more than okay. 

You are entitled to a low energy day, a sloth day of sorts. The world will not fall apart and your work will get done. 

Nothing wrong with hustling, sometimes your hustle is more like a power walk and that is alright too!
