1324: It doesn't always have to be new-new!
If you're looking for a spark of inspiration and you want to tend to your curiosity (or even your inner child), today's episode is for you!
Episode transcript:
Good morning, Daily Peppers and a very happy Friday to you. So I don't know about you, but I definitely own more books that I haven't read than I have read. And as multi passionate, so we tend to have interest in so many different things. We are innately curious, and we also tend to get distracted by any shiny object. So for today's daily pep, I'm simply giving you a moment to remember different things. Maybe it's areas that you were really interested in. Maybe it's a a craft kit you bought or a book you borrowed that you were really excited by and just completely forgot about. Or what is something you've been wanting to do and just haven't had the time to do? And like we were talking about earlier in the week, how can you break away from all or nothing thinking? And what is something that you couldn't wait to dive into that you just didn't, that maybe you feel bad about, or maybe life got in the way and you forgot it was even a thing.
Maybe also think about the things you've got access to, like courses or subscriptions that you haven't used. And just think about what could feed your curiosity and your joy right now that isn't something new and shiny and doesn't involve getting something new. Now don't get me wrong. I am all for the new and the shiny, and novelty inspires and motivates me more than most things. But I also forget that things that I've had for a while that I haven't gone into, they're gonna be new and fresh too. I know that previous me had good taste, and maybe I'll be picking it up exactly when I most need to. So this is your invitation to think back and remember and dig around something that you were really excited about that you didn't get around to, and let it provide inspiration and also some nourishment for you. Adulting can be really fucking hard, and we do not give ourselves enough treats.
So take this as a reminder, a permission slip, and an invitation to feed your curiosity and maybe even your inner child. As we're wrapping up the week together, I wanna remind you that your worth is not based on your productivity. What you did or didn't get done this week is enough. And if you need that in a bit of a spicier format, give yourself a bit of a fucking break and appreciate what you have done. I look forward to being back here with you on Monday as usual and on Sunday in your inbox if you're signed up for my email community. If you wanna get in on that fun, there's more info in the show notes and I can't wait to be back with you soon. Take care.
