It’s Monday morning.
Monday mornings are usually the barometer that tells you whether or not you are happy with your job/career/life/circumstances/etc, etc. It’s easy to be happy on Friday evening, but Monday morning is when the rubber meets the road.
It’s understandable that most of us feel overwhelmed these days when thinking about the week ahead.
But please remember, none of us are going to end systemic racism this week.
None of us are going to end a global pandemic this week.
But, and this is a BIG but, we can all do our part.
We can all perform our tiny, insignificant part.
Fortunately, these insignificant parts, when added together, will make a difference. In fact it’s the only thing that ever did (cue the Margaret Mead quote).
So instead of obsessing over the news, or going down a social-media wormhole-of-despair this week, focus on how you want to improve things. Focus on how you want things to be better, and what your part in that can be, then do your part.
That’s all you can do, that’s all that we can all do. So let’s do it.
