Advice to self (and you, if it’s helpful)... Next time your pettiest worry or nagging regret occupies your mind, try this mantra: “I have bigger fish to fry.” Then pivot to thinking about your most cherished vision / project in life.

A reminder to my fellow self-employed types: REVIEW YOUR RATES on a schedule. If you're keeping your plate full enough, and you're billing everybody the same rate you were billing, let's say, two years ago, TIME TO CHARGE MORE. #selfemployed

“Stay afraid, but do it anyway. What’s important is the action. You don’t have to wait to be confident. Just do it and eventually the confidence will follow.” — Carrie Fisher

In line with this Newport piece, the rapid decline of this platform has led me to formulate a much more DIY/hybrid mix of social interactions for myself on platforms macro (here, FB, IG, B*sky) & micro (Discord & WhatsApp groups etc.). newyorker.com/culture/cultur…

In line with this, if we're mutuals & you want more small group chats (Discord/WhatsApp) in your life, I'm looking for friends who are active in: —freelance journalism —submitting to literary journals —writing & publishing books —following European football ⚽️ So holler at me.

The longer I write, the more I think that patience is the single most important trait we need for this work. Patience with ourselves, with our work, with the process. I'm so, so eager to get my words into the world. But I'd be doing them a disservice if I rushed them.

Your calendar will show you what you care about. No need to defend. Just open it up. Give it a good look. Adjust if your walk isn't matching your talk.

regrets are a waste of time and energy. real awareness means channeling that energy into making changes that can affect your now instead.

To operate effectively through a crisis: Focus sharply on the *one thing* you can do next. Paralysis comes when people sit in emotion & overwhelm. "One thing" mindset begins motion - with a simple, clear foot forward. Do one thing...recenter, do another & keep going.
