Have you ever heard Mel Robbins speak or read her books? She talks about the 5-second rule. Basically, don't give yourself the opportunity to procrastinate. Instead, think of yourself as a rocket ship, and count backwards from 5 and then do whatever you need to do. Being on autopilot is the best way to override your natural tendency to put off making decisions and doing the things you need to do to live your best life. Let's be honest: it takes sacrifice and hard work to achieve your dreams. 5... 4... 3... 2... 1! What to-do item will you check off your list today?

Thankful for long conversations that start at lunch and turn into dinner as the snow drifts down over the Empire State Building and the floodlights come on and dance before our eyes ❄️

This sounds like something my mother would say, and I definitely needed this reminder today. Deep breaths! Yes, life often isn't easy, but there is always something to be thankful for even if it seems small. As a writer, when the going gets tough, I like to remind myself it's all fodder for my books. How do you handle frustrations and disappointments? What do you do when you feel like smashing a bunch of plates? Ooooopa! :::
