You can see the manifesto I wrote for 2020 and continued into 2021 in these posts:

The pursuit of a life lived well- sharing my 2020 manifesto

A foundation of rest- unpacking my 2020 manifesto

Holy hustle- unpacking my 2020 manifesto

2020 manifesto progress- failure or growth?

Acknowledge the progress- 2020 manifesto reflections

The dominant emotion I have been navigating this year is discouragement. I know I’m not alone in that. I share a few points that have been helping me move forward.

It has been two years since 'Stepping Up In Leadership' was released. What would I change about the book? What have I learned?

Suddenly we become aware of the date and how much of 2021 is behind us. Does that bring up a sense of exhaustion or anxiety in you? For me, I feel the effort that has been expended in these first six months. I look ahead to the amount I still need to do and the projects not yet completed. I need a midyear reset.

I 'read' most books in audiobook format these days. What about you? Listening is great but the best learning comes from reflecting and applying what you've learned. Here is some of what I have learned from the audiobooks I've listened to this year, as well as the action steps I am committing to.
