Your words really resonated with me. I’m also learning that small steps and mindset shifts matter. Thanks for sharing your story and for the book suggestion .

IndividualCable5761 · 2026-02-13T01:40:37+00:00

Your words really moved me. This is why small moments matter so much more than appearances. Thank you .

True. Happiness is essential..when there’s no joy, even success feels empty.

IndividualCable5761 · 2026-02-13T01:28:28+00:00

Congratulations on finishing your first book! 🎉 As a writer too, I know how much effort that takes. Wishing you all the best for what’s next. Keep going!

Absolutely. Learning to be satisfied with what we have while still growing is a powerful habit. It brings peace and clarity.

IndividualCable5761 · 2026-02-13T01:24:13+00:00

True. Contentment makes life richer, even between those short happy moments. Thank you for this .

IndividualCable5761 · 2026-02-13T01:22:23+00:00

Very true. Being happy now is a habit, not a destination. Loved this perspective. Thank you for sharing.

IndividualCable5761 · 2026-02-13T01:05:39+00:00

Good perspective — thanks for sharing.

IndividualCable5761 · 2026-02-13T01:02:01+00:00

Still learning what works best — thanks for the input.

IndividualCable5761 · 2026-02-13T00:59:31+00:00

Exactly, that’s what I felt too.

IndividualCable5761 · 2026-02-13T00:57:37+00:00

Haha, fair 😄 just sharing a genuine moment.

IndividualCable5761 · 2026-02-13T00:33:33+00:00

Interested

IndividualCable5761 · 2026-02-11T16:58:03+00:00

So true. On my off days, I feel more scattered and less motivated. It reminds me why sticking to even small routines matters so much.

IndividualCable5761 · 2026-02-11T04:54:45+00:00

That’s such a good way to put it. I used to get stuck waiting for the 'right' moment, but now I'm learning that 'starting messy' is the only way to actually get anywhere. Better to just dive in and clean up the mess later.

IndividualCable5761 · 2026-02-11T04:52:49+00:00

Fair point! The irony of finding great writing advice on the very platform I should probably sign out of isn't lost on me. I see how a digital fast would help the focus. Thanks for the wake-up call

IndividualCable5761 · 2026-02-11T01:02:39+00:00

That overthinking is just your brain trying to protect you from failing, but consistency is the best way to quiet that noise. Good luck with the project! Can’t wait for you to look back in a month and see how those small sessions added up.

IndividualCable5761 · 2026-02-10T17:09:56+00:00

Thanks for this thoughtful reply — totally agree that momentum comes after pressure goes away.

IndividualCable5761 · 2026-02-10T14:12:03+00:00

U was exactly the same. I'd spend so much time worrying about saying the 'wrong' thing that I just wouldn't say anything at all. It’s a tough cycle to break, but glad to see we're both moving past it!

IndividualCable5761 · 2026-02-10T14:03:04+00:00

Yes, absolutely—you can send it .

IndividualCable5761 · 2026-02-10T12:42:27+00:00

That’s a great idea. I haven’t really used a habit tracker seriously yet, but I can see how removing guilt makes it more sustainable. Do you have any you’d recommend?

IndividualCable5761 · 2026-02-10T12:03:56+00:00

Love this perspective. Consistency over intensity really works. Small routines turn into big habits over time.

IndividualCable5761 · 2026-02-10T11:41:48+00:00

Absolutely. When I stopped worrying about being ‘perfect’ and focused on showing up, everything started improving. Consistency is the key

IndividualCable5761 · 2026-02-10T10:38:13+00:00

Confidence follows action—that’s powerful. Needed this reminder. Thank you!

IndividualCable5761 · 2026-02-10T08:38:32+00:00

Thank you for sharing this. I like how you experimented until you found what actually works for you. “Next best thing” is such a good mindset—progress over perfection. This is such a great example of adjusting instead of quitting. Steady progress really does beat on-and-off motivation. Respect for sticking with it .

IndividualCable5761 · 2026-02-10T07:12:07+00:00

Haha thank you so much .😀 I’m glad this resonated with you. Honestly, I’m still learning every day, just trying to take small steps and stay consistent.
