As someone who finds it hard to set priorities because I want to do everything and also do everything perfectly, it's good to have regular reminders that you have to set your priorities in life, like @hiroko.io's "You can't be a Straight A student in life, so pick 3":
You can't be a Straight A student in life, so pick 3
"Life isn't school- you can't be a Straight A student in all aspects of life. So pick 3 to prioritize."

My next BHAG: to publish a book sharing my methodologies to get sh*t done (like write a book or create courses) with executive dysfunction/ADHD.

Going to start building/learning in public on my blog! (Been spending the afternoon cleaning my blog up in preparation.)

I'm not a recovered anxiety-mess, but I'm definitely beginning to find different ways of thinking about my anxiety and chronic over-planning and over-packing tendencies... A lot of learning thru a month-long trip to Taiwan.

We’re trying to get the toddler to walk instead of always being in a stroller, and a 1.4 km route took us 1 hour this morning 😆 It was a nice hour where he explored a lot of random things we would’ve never noticed if he didn’t point them out, though, so well spent.

We moved over to Kaohsiung few days ago and I’m really loving it here! 😍

I think the biggest culture shock I’m having in Taiwan is that McDonald’s happy meals don’t come with that house box or toys and it’s just sadness meals

I tried the asparagus juice! It was really interesting. It’s like, refreshing, refreshing, refreshing, refr—— oh god asparagus!!!!!!

I’ve never been punched in the face by an asparagus, but I’d imagine this is how it must feel.

Anyone tried asparagus juice before?

I did the unthinkable: I deleted my Twitter, LinkedIn & Bluesky apps from my phone. I've received many DMs, even from people I've never spoken to before, over this post and I'm floored there are people outside of my immediate circle reading these 🥺
