Make Your Damn Bed

what can we do? || 10 : TAKE ONE TINY ACTION


Listen Later

Most of us don't have the time, energy, or bandwidth to do anything extra right now, but I hope these guides can be a reminder that there are lots of different ways to engage on a practical level, on any scale.


As long as you're alive, you're engaging and that's truly enough. BUT, if you have been feeling the same kind of "listless" that I have, ideally one of these tactics can motivate you (and me) to engage more enthusiastically because there are people are already out there doing the thing, and once you start to create WITH them, you'll start to feel less listless (and less defeated).


There are limitless opportunities + countless ways to engage. Find one. Start small, but start somewhere.
