 There’s a lot of fear and panic in the world right now, which I understand. I’m a pretty optimistic person, but even I’ve found myself dwelling on the future and feeling confused and down about things from time to time. So I wanted to share a guide to surviving tough times... for when things feel confusing and out of our control, or when we’re not sure what will happen next.

 A spot of reflection...
Last year was tough for me, in a number of ways. I’m not going to talk about everything that went on; perhaps I’ll cover it in a future post - and some of it I’ve mentioned already.  Hey there!
I went to a “gratitude and calligraphy” workshop at the weekend. We reflected on our year... and then wrote some of our key words in calligraphy (in case you wondered how the two connected!)  Hello there!
Last week I had a total balls-up: I was meant to host a Live Chat... and I totally forgot! I didn’t show up... to my own online event!  Last week I bought myself a sticker book (yes, an adult sticker book!), and I’ve been “stickering” most nights.
 Today I wanted to share a tip that has been helping me.
It comes from Jen Dziura, who runs Get Bullish (the online community where I work as an accountability coach). Jen was talking about ditching things that aren’t pleasurable or productive... and I thought, “This is PERFECT!”  Photo by Drop the Label Movement on Unsplash Phoof. What a week last week!
I had a Facebook Live interview with the lovely Eva Jannotta of Simply Put Strategies.  Photo by Annie Spratt on Unsplash I was feeling swamped and chaotic recently.
So I started thinking about guidelines I could follow, to help me handle things as they came up, and feel more in control. |
