Today was quiet. One of the quietest days I’ve had in the shop for the last year. You know what’s weird?… it didn’t make me worry.
In the past, a quiet day sometimes had me wondering if I didn’t do something I should have this week. Like I dropped the ball or didn’t post or share enough. But I’m grateful to be in a phase of shop ownership where I’ve changed the way I see things.
This month (even though it has just begun) I find myself with a plethora of “good problems” & I’ve gotten myself caught up in the spiral of anxiety a bit too much.
This morning, I could not stop my mind or heart from racing. I knew what I needed to do. I prayed. I said exactly what was on my mind & let it all go. I felt instant relief. Then, I thought about how grateful I was that any of these “problems” were mine. “Problems” that exist only because things I’ve prayed for, hoped for, worked for are really happening.
The reality of it is, it’s scary. And it’s ok to be scared. AND, my body clearly does not know the difference between excitement & anxiety. 😬 But I’m working on it.
This quiet day was exactly what my nervous system needed. I labeled 3 tables of new items, picked the 3 massive wholesale orders I’m delivering in coming days & got to spend extra time & attention with my customers. I took time to get the back room clear for Saturday.
Anyway, I write a lot, I know. 😂 But this is what’s on my heart. Thanks for reading. 💜
