Yesterday was “National Plan Your Vacation Day”… which got us thinking about road-trips. And of course, then there was the jump to one of our favorite books about creating a new mental roadmap based on values rather than anxiety, one that embraces the exposure process rather than rituals, and one that, when followed, helps you go on the road trip you planned yesterday without OCD! Link to book on Amazon is in bio👆.
It’s not just figuring out who you are…it’s also realizing you’ll need to take the time to cultivate that sense of self you’ve found!
Figuring out those next steps is always hard. The vision for the big picture is often present, but figuring out the start is something else. Remember trees grow from small seeds; our personal dreams are the same. Start small, remember that good enough is enough! Give yourself permission to grow into those things you have hoped for and dreamt of!
