If there’s no finish line, why are we sprinting?

Last week, I got myself so anxious I couldn't breathe.

We had two podcast interviews.

A pile of edits.

DMs, texts, emails — all buzzing nonstop...

I felt like I was drowning.

Then, I had this weirdly calming thought:

This sh*t never ends... does it?

I will likely DIE with things left on my to-do list.

It seems dark — but it freed me.

There is no finish line. So WTF is the point of stressing everyday?

My new mindset?

One day at a time.

If I give today my best… that’s enough.

No guilt. No pressure to do it all.

Just prioritize and execute - one day at a time.

So next time you feel buried…

Pause. Breathe. And remember:

The list never ends.

So do your best for today, and tomorrow is a new day.
