Hi Makers!
We spend a lot of time focused on problems and obstacles, but research shows that there are benefits to acknowledging our achievements and celebrating our wins -- no matter how small.
So let's use this discussion to share something we've done recently that feels like a positive. It may be something that happened in work life or personal life.
Mine is that I recently accidentally adopted a stray cat, she's been a lovely addition to our house so far. ๐ธ

Did you decide on a name for the cat, @aaronoleary?
As for positive news, one of my good friends is getting married this weekend after 9 years with his partner. I'm super happy for them and excited to see them in LA this weekend. ๐๐ผ

My sister came to see me for my birthday...was nice to have a little break from working ๐
My wife is a travel nurse and just landed a 3-month gig in the Virgin Islands, starting in November! We're so excited! ๐
@aaronoleary Totally agree. The fact that she's literally saving lives every day helps me to put the challenges I'm facing into context.
This is a great post! @aaronoleary We also adopted an abandoned cat a few months ago! Feels good to do something for an animal in need and give them much-needed love. As for other things in personal life - I'm expecting my first baby and moving to a new home this week (with the cat) and planning my first PH launch ๐ธ๐

I managed to find time to work on my project all throughout last week, while still keeping up with work and all other of life's responsibilities in a satisfying way. And - it's still super fun to work at, even though I'm well past the phase where I usually lose interest in my personal projects!
I turned Slack notifications off all weekend for Canadian Thanksgiving (not an easy feat for me!) and spent some amazing quality time with the family :).

@olive_gives @marisa_paramita congrats!!
My daughter just turned 9 this week. Events like this are great reminders that as much as there is to do as a founder, being a father and spending time with my family is the most important job there is!
