Many people think journaling means long entries and lots of discipline. In reality, it often works the other way around: the simpler the habit, the more likely it sticks. That’s why I love this practice: 3 highlights per day . Not as forced positivity, not as “everything is great.” but more like training your attention, and your attention shapes your experience.

The document is already open with the first sentence waiting. The shoes are by the door with a note: Just ten minutes. A mess

Some people hear “possibility” and think rose-colored glasses. That’s not it. Seeing possibility means eyes open + spotting the next step - even with obstacles and headwinds. Three simple moves Quick pre-mortem (7 minutes) Imagine it’s six weeks from now and the project flopped. Write 5 reasons you can influence . Circle the top 2  and design one counter-move for each. Example:  “Low sign-ups” → sharpen title + line up one partner post. If/Then anchors (no drama) If  X happe
