5 Killer Techniques to Push through December and End Strong!
The must-have gift that guarantees that Medium writers crush the holidays — even if not perfectly
I have been told that some of the happiest people on this planet have endured the most pain in life. Sometimes the only choice is pushing through. Happy holidays and please consider the following bold steps to ensure your continued march to personal and writing success:
💥1st Commandment: Continue to write every day. This is a job. It’s supposed to be tough. No days off.
💥2nd Commandment: Take care of the family. Small and thoughtful gifts win the day.
💥3rd Commandment: Downplay the talk on personal health. A stoic adult is a respected adult.
💥4th Commandment: Continue to give back to the Medium community. Making new friendships later in life can be brutal. You tend to lose friends and not make new ones. I never thought I would get another chance to revel in new and powerful relationships! Continue to earn their trust.
💥5th Commandment: Embrace the suck. Doing hard things and doing them every day is rewarding but not always fun. It takes routine to overcome the human tendencies to quit when things get painful and hard. Rest temporarily but push through.
