Have you ever done something and it felt so difficult to do? This happened to me recently. I had a bunch of scans I needed to do and I was using a bed scanner and it was like watching paint dry scanning those documents. Plus, a lot of extra work and time. Then someone suggested getting a double-sided, auto feeding scanner. This made the job fun and I have scanner love. Use practices and tools you have and if they aren’t working it’s time to find a new one.

Around the beginning of the year, I like to decide what are my 3 focus words. Think about what you want more of in your life. Here are some ideas; enthusiasm, joy, knowledge, thankfulness, curiosity, fun or other in your life. What are your 3 focus words for 2021.
Post them in comments, I'd love to know your words. I chose to be open to more; love, kindness and wonder in 2021.   It’s important to put yourself first at times so you have energy to do all the other things. Take the walk that helps with stress and have energy later to wrap or shop for gifts.
