How to find a softer landing
|
Coming home, we missed our connecting flight. 😭 The plane was ready to land in DC when we found out the weather was too bad to descend. Instead, we flew circles in the sky for 45 minutes. Though I wasn’t looking forward to a long layover, I was glad that the protocol wasn’t to fly into the storm hoping for the best. 🤞 You don’t always have to move forward at all costs. Sure, things might take longer. People might get upset. Your plans might get derailed. But your peace of mind is worth it. I’m curious, Reader, is there something you've been pushing that just isn't working? What if you took a step back and circled the air for a while? For me, finding the balance between productivity and rest is a spiritual practice. I have big dreams but lean on the wisdom of knowing when to move forward and when to wait. Don’t plow through a storm when you might be able to wait it out and have a softer landing. ⛈️ Give yourself space to find that peace. In Joy, Nyssa P.S.

I'm all for being informed and taking action, but I'm also aware that unplugging from my device grounds me and increases my joy for my life. There's a power in...
The dust of the New Year is settling. Projects be project-ing. Tasks might be piling up. And what about that thing you said, "2025 will be the year I ..." If overwhelm is creeping in, make this one habit something you DID do in 2025: Never have more than 3 priorities. Seriously, Reader, this message made it to your inbox because it was one of my 3 priorities for today. (It works!) I start the day knowing what critical few things need my attention most, so at least those few things get done....
Kelly and I's latest project has been choosing the songs for our wedding dance party next month. 💃🏻🕺🏽 Not easy with so many songs to choose from! So we’ve been using the Tear Test. If the song’s intro or title makes one of us cry, it's clear YES. 👉This is also a great indicator of how to set goals for your life. One of the first things I do with coaching clients is help them get clear on what’s most important. It's amazing how challenging knowing what you really want can be. If thinking of a...
