List #52 - Things I do on January 1
At least this year its on a Thursday!
I do not panic.
Seriously, it will be okay. You’re in the same boat as everyone else.
I remember its another day on earth.
The new year is simply that. A new year. You have not magically become a new person overnight. You are not expected to conquer your enemies, slay dragons, lose 20 pounds, make the Time 100 List, and build your side hustle in the first month of 2026. You’re not expected to do this in life. And if you are able to accomplish all of the above, congratulations! Can I have what you’re having?
I shower and move (a little bit).
I will literally go outside to walk around our building. Then I will go back inside, shower, and put on clean sweats.
I still make a to-do list.
The to-do list is usually basic home things that I have to do. Nothing crazy. Remember, its another day on earth.
I plan to go to bed at 5pm.
I promise you, sleep fixes any and all scaries you may have.
