Start Your Week with Intention

Before the week takes off, take a moment to ask yourself: What do I actually want to accomplish?

A little planning goes a long way. It helps you stay focused, anticipate challenges, and make real progress—whether it’s in work, personal life, or just having more fun.

Intentions without action are just dreams. Write them down and make them happen.

Here's a nice morning ritual to have for yourself. Does reading this first thing in the day help bring peace from a restless night or perhaps more positivity about an uncertain future? What is your morning routine?

Return to your self

When emotions run high, the mind often adds fuel to the fire—overanalyzing, replaying scenarios, or making assumptions. The key is to pause before getting swept away. Instead of feeding the emotion with more thoughts, step back. Take deep breaths, ground yourself in the present, and engage in mindfulness or meditation. This creates space for clarity and prevents reactive decisions.

What’s your go-to way to calm your mind when emotions take over? Let’s share and learn from each other.

Also, I make mental health video responses to many of your questions. The latest one is about three small daily habits that make a big impact on improving your mental health. If this sounds useful, check it out by clicking one of the links below

Introjects 'R' Us

My earliest memories involve Sesame Street; when Oscar the Grouch went inside his trash can, we'd go with him, walking down a matching spiral staircase within our own psyche.

Slivers of self show up in our creativity, and it goes the other way, too; absorbing qualities from the world, from friends and family, heroes and villains, mentors and idols, media and artwork...

We are shaped by what surrounds us.

How do you talk to yourself?

If a friend was struggling, you wouldn’t criticize them—you’d offer kindness, patience, and encouragement. So why not do the same for yourself? The way you speak to yourself shapes your confidence, your energy, and your self-worth. Replace self-doubt with self-compassion. Be your own biggest supporter.

What’s one kind thing you can say to yourself today? Let me know in the comments!

Also, I make mental health video responses to many of your questions. The latest one is about what to do if your thoughts are holding you back. If this sounds useful, check it out by clicking one of the links below:

Enjoying life in the immediate present

True happiness isn’t found in future plans or past memories—it lives in the now. The more we postpone joy, waiting for the "perfect" moment, the more we miss what’s already here. Take a breath, feel the present, and allow yourself to fully experience the little moments that make life beautiful.

What’s one thing in this moment that brings you joy? Share below!
