If you could wish for anything right now, what would it be, and why?

Happy Monday! 💫

We're grateful to be starting a new week with our Mighty family.

For today's #MightyMinute , imagine you could wish for anything right now. What would it be, and why?

Feel free to be as creative as you'd like! ✨

Mighty staffer @sparklywartanks wishes for more hours in the day to rest and experience more joy. Lately, she's been feeling weighed down by just about everything. 😫😵

If you could make a living doing something you enjoyed and looked forward to every day, what would you do, and why?

Mighties, imagine making a living doing something that brought you joy and that you genuinely looked forward to each day. I've been thinking about that a lot lately.

My first thought was doing absolutely nothing (imagine just waking up every day and somehow that's how we make a living! 😂). But realistically, I really enjoy being creative in community spaces. Along with still being part of this Mighty community, I would love to facilitate creative workshops with unlimited resources and supplies. I'd also love to have creative ideas flowing through my imagination like water.

In my ideal world, life wouldn't revolve so heavily around finances. Instead, it would center on community, support, creativity, and sharing knowledge and insight with one another.

What about you? If you could make a living doing something you truly enjoy and look forward to, what would that look like?
