Question of the Week:

What were your favorite things from last week?

What will be your favorite things this week?

My favorite things last week were biking with my kids, finding a really difficult workout to look forward to (trying it today), and being outside nonstop all weekend.

My favorite things this upcoming week will be the ice cream welcome event for my son’s school, that I already finished Monday’s chores on Sunday, and gearing up for some fun work travel (my wife is joining for a couple trips) in the next few weeks.

Think about how great your week was, then plan things to look forward to in the weeks to come. Now that is my kind of cycle!
