My Gift to You this Valentine's Day
Are you Team Galentines or Valentines or love them both? Regardless of with whom you're celebrating, 𝘆𝗼𝘂𝗿 𝗽𝗿𝗼𝗱𝘂𝗰𝘁𝗶𝘃𝗶𝘁𝘆 𝗱𝗲𝗽𝗲𝗻𝗱𝘀 𝗼𝗻 𝘀𝘂𝗿𝗿𝗼𝘂𝗻𝗱𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝘆𝗼𝘂𝗿𝘀𝗲𝗹𝗳 𝘄𝗶𝘁𝗵 𝗮 𝗱𝗶𝘃𝗲𝗿𝘀𝗲 𝘀𝗾𝘂𝗮𝗱 𝘄𝗵𝗼 𝘀𝘂𝗽𝗽𝗼𝗿𝘁𝘀 𝘆𝗼𝘂 𝗮𝘀 𝘆𝗼𝘂 𝗮𝗿𝗲, 𝗲𝗻𝗰𝗼𝘂𝗿𝗮𝗴𝗲𝘀 𝘆𝗼𝘂 𝘁𝗼 𝗹𝗲𝘃𝗲𝗹 𝘂𝗽 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗰𝗵𝗲𝗲𝗿𝘀 𝘆𝗼𝘂 𝗼𝗻. Whether online, in-person or via snail mail, what steps are you taking to cultivate a squad you love and which loves you back? Those you allow in are vital for your squad goals.
𝗛𝗮𝘃𝗲 𝘆𝗼𝘂 𝗺𝗮𝗱𝗲 𝘁𝗶𝗺𝗲 𝗳𝗼𝗿 𝘁𝗵𝗼𝘀𝗲 𝘆𝗼𝘂 𝗹𝗼𝘃𝗲 𝗺𝗼𝘀𝘁 𝗶𝗻 𝗰𝗲𝗹𝗲𝗯𝗿𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 𝗼𝗳 𝗩𝗮𝗹𝗲𝗻𝘁𝗶𝗻𝗲'𝘀 𝗗𝗮𝘆? What better day than Valentines to pull out your calendar and carve out time to spread some love? Remember that each "what" (i.e. activity with someone you love) for which a "when" has been assigned (i.e. specific time blocked off on your schedule) is more likely to get accomplished, which means activities with time allocated for them on your calendar are more likely to actually happen.
As humans, our priorities for productivity might vary, but we tend to prioritize what really matters to us. 𝗪𝗲 𝗺𝗮𝗸𝗲 𝘁𝗶𝗺𝗲 𝗳𝗼𝗿 𝘁𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝗮𝗯𝗼𝘂𝘁 𝘄𝗵𝗶𝗰𝗵 𝘄𝗲 𝗰𝗮𝗿𝗲, whether it's our partners, friends, kids, businesses or communities.
Spending quality time with your squad doesn't magically happen; you have to plan for it. Date nights require planning. Making self-care a priority doesn't happen without deciding from where those minutes will come.
Have you made time for those you love most in the days, weeks and months ahead? 𝗗𝗼𝗻'𝘁 𝗵𝗲𝘀𝗶𝘁𝗮𝘁𝗲... 𝗔𝗰𝘁 𝗻𝗼𝘄!
Meanwhile, if you’re looking for a quick boost to your productivity, I’ve got you covered. Consider implementing any one of these best practices. Realize it's vital to focus on converting only one into a habit at once, concentrating on progress over perfection.
