Hi Space Makers!
I am (accidentally!) a good example of space making today…in two different ways.
First off, I decided to start my week in a fun way (an excellent way for me to create mental space for myself) by drawing a card for someone.
That much was deliberate.
However, I also put on a YouTube video of Christmas ghost stories because I’m looking for ideas for another story to tell at an event on Thursday night and I got so caught up in the stories and in my drawing process that I spend MUCH longer at it than I meant to.
Now, from a ‘plan things well so you don’t feel rushed’ perspective, that might not have been the best result.
But from a ‘how does your brain feel’ perspective, it was a GREAT way to make some space for myself. I feel relaxed and very ready to take on the other tasks in my day.
As for the second way that I am going to be a good Space Maker example today…well, after spending all that time on drawing and listening, I didn’t have a lot of time to develop my original idea for this post.
Soooooo, I reminded myself that ‘done beats perfect every single time’ and find a quick but encouraging approach to this post.
Hopefully, I was successful!
Meanwhile, Space Making friends, I hope that you can create enough space in your day for some fun, some ease, and that you can choose done over perfect whenever possible.
And, with that said, here are our video suggestions for today and whether you choose to do these or another practice, I hope you feel good about the process.
