Your tongue is a wand.

Permanently Tired.

That’s what it said on a woman’s t-shirt during a walk Nick and I took last week.

At first, we laughed.

But then I stopped and said,

“Wait… that’s actually awful.”

Imagine taking on that identity.Wearing it on your chest like a badge.Telling the world — and yourself — who you are.

“Hi, nice to meet you. I’m permanently exhausted.”

And yet… we all do this.We say things like:

• “I’m such an anxious person.”
• “I always screw this up.”
• “I’m just bad with money.”
• “I could never do that.”

We speak these things casually.But here’s the truth:

Your tongue is a wand.

Your words aren’t just sounds.They’re spells.

Every word we say casts a vote for the kind of life we live.

Speak powerfully — you become powerful.Speak like a victim — you stay one.

So this week, I'm giving myself a simple challenge:

Zero complaining.

Want to join me?
