Carla Naumburg wrote in her book titled How to Stop Losing Your Sh*t With Your Kids, “We are always practicing something even if it is not something that we want to get better at.”

What a powerful reality to bring us to a place of noticing our daily habits. Sometimes we are practicing things that we were modeled and we are unaware that we do them.

Sometimes we are well aware of practicing a bad habit but we just don’t stop because the reality is that we humans can be morons. Other times we have intentionally cultivated daily habits that help us practice what we actually want to get better at.

My encouragement for us this week is to think about what we are practicing. May we always remember that we have a choice in what we are getting better at. There is abundant grace for the journey. None of us get it right all the time, but the more we practice what is good, the better we get at it.

You are not alone!
