“Inconvenient Investments"
The guidance this week centers around the ways that we’re feeling overwhelmed and under pressure, but still called to make investments in ourselves, financially as well as with our precious time and energy.
We’re feeling squeezed. The to-do list may feel stifling, and the temptation to procrastinate is strong. We’re encouraged this week to refocus on the long game.
One of my favorite quotes is “judge each day not by the harvest you reap, but by the seeds you sow”.
We may be surrounded by celebrations and start-of-summer festivities but we’re guided not to lose sight of our daily practices and devotion to ourselves.
This devotion may even feel stingy. It may feel like being a stick in the mud as we reject festive summer cocktails and allow the metaphorical ice cream truck to pass us by. But these small devotions are not small at all.
These choices are building an essential foundation of consistently choosing ourselves again and again, investing our time and money in a frequency of devotion, until it doesn’t feel like scarcity but just our natural state of being.
