I came across this on Beth Woolsey’s blog, and it’s perfect:
I am quite sure these days I am failing at All the Things, and even though I definitely, for sure, absolutely do NOT subscribe to the idea that we have to All the Things well All the Time, I do like to do Some of the Things well Some of the Time. Hell, I’ll even take doing One of the Things well On Occasion and high-five myself for it in the mirror because my standards are low…
If you also managed to complete A Thing today, let’s all high-five each other, and maybe give each other stickers. Doing things is hard, man.
