I love your fresh take on how to build a practice of on-going reflection, rather than making unrealistic New Year’s resolutions once a year. Thanks for these newsletters - I always feel wiser after reading them!
Interesting about the 'be' vs 'become' dichotomy. I came across this today as I was building out my goals in August Bradley's Notion template. The question I was asking myself was 'do I make my value goal to "be an accomplished writer" or "become an accomplished writer"?' I was thinking of the old adage of dressing for the job you want rather than the job you have. The question one asks of children is 'what do you want to be ...', not 'what do you want to become...'.
