Facing Your Fear of Risk

Facing Your Fear of Risk 9th Rest Day for 2022 I took my 9th rest day for 2022 yesterday, Friday, April 8, 2022. I also rested most of Thursday, April 7, 2022 except for pro bono legal work I did for my client as a business attorney. For my day to count as a rest day, I have to avoid all work and be present with my relaxing activities by myself or with loved ones.

They vacationed on their own for 4 days on...

In the second half, I emphasize the importance of managing your expectations on when your work can be achieved. By doing your best to do the work and understand the process from A to Z, you get a better idea of how much time and effort it takes to get certain type of work done.

2: Positive Masters - Study & Work with Me. Rain noise. Three 45-minute Pomodoros.

Welcome to Positive Masters where we develop our mindset and passion projects. In this video, let's study and work together for three 45-minute Pomodoros (study or work sessions), so we can take another step toward our goals!
