of the Day: Ditch the "To Do" and embrace the "Ta-Da!"

Instead of starting your day with looming tasks, dive in!
Celebrate every win: As you tackle projects, jot down your accomplishments (big or small) on an "I Did" list. ✅

Seeing your progress is powerful! ✅ things off triggers a sense of accomplishment and pride😁 and is a reminder of your amazing capabilities!

So, celebrate victories, big and small, and watch your confidence soar 🪁

Empathy and compassion are sorely missing from this world, but each of us as individuals can build this from within and offer it to others.

Newcomers should never be intimidated by the community here. We've been around for almost seven years, and we're very welcoming.

So how do you find your people?

Post about what you like, and like what people post.

Community resiliency is how we band together to stop trolls.

For years, bad actors have tried and failed to infiltrate and ruin this beloved community. We're here to tell you that they will never stop trying. Whether it's malice, boredom, or plain-old jealousy, they will always try.

But you (yes, you) can thwart them. How?

1. BLOCK AND REPORT them, and 2. pretend they don't exist. Ignore them completely. Just sit back and wait for the :trollsplat:.

Around here, it happens fast.

Unfortunately, even this post is troll food. They love the attention.

But it makes a very important point. You can help by starving them of the attention they crave, and we sincerely hope that you will.

Starting out today with an early sunlight walk and peaceful creek waters. (My 11 sec video must be too big.)

Yesterday evening’s visitor was curious but could care less about us. We waved as it sauntered by. (Bear pic taken by another camper.)

Protip: If anyone ever makes you feel unwelcome here, BLOCK that person immediately.

If they're violating the TOS in doing so, then REPORT them too.

"Be like the cliff against which the waves continually break; but it stands firm and tames the fury of the water around it. "- Marcus Aurelius

This is why I’m going there. Where I can tune out the chatter and feed on the beauty, silence and peace. Where I can reflect on only what my eyes can see and my ears can hear in those moments.

I will emerge renewed and ready for wherever life takes me going forward.


Here's a yellow and black butterfly I made friends with, also from 2016.

Mindset affects motivation, resilience and how we see success versus failure.
