A path forward in small steps
Guided worksheets
You will gain momentum as you see visible progress.
Core concepts and practices
You can see yourself working on the thing that really matters to you, in a rhythm defined by you.
You have a dream, but you are not going to disappoint your family, or fail your employer or your community.
Your life, it seems, has already been promised away.
But when you try to insert that inspiration into real life, real life’s chaos hijacks even the best-laid plans.
“After two decades running in circles, I finally began to treat myself as my own change management client.”
I had read every inspiring guru book.
I needed real life actions that I could pile-drive through any chaotic day.
I realized the steps I applied to myself were a repeatable process anyone could use.
— Mary Sue
KindEdge is painless progress.
You need a way to move the progress peg forward every day, even when there seems to be no time.
I had detailed excel spreadsheets squeezing my dreams to tiny time blocks on Sunday nights. But even then, those hours would get hijacked; I’d end up in an emergency room with my child after a soccer tournament weekend left him injured.
After many re-starts, I refused to remain a victim to life’s chaos. If I could build a simply structure to make just one decision and one action in a few minutes amidst the chaos, I was making progress in real life, rather than remaining a victim. If the worksheets I created for myself could guide me to just one decision and one action, I could get the next meeting with my banker on my calendar, and suddenly the progress peg moved forward in real life.
I finally achieved real progress by treating myself as my own client, breaking massive change into bite-sized guided decisions and actions.
ACTION: Get past the inertia of inspiring self-help books. And silence any self-care that is training you to endure the frozen bad. GET TO THE GOOD. Today.
KindEdge is a series of bite-sized actionable steps you can squeeze into the gaps of any busy day. Each task is another decision that secures yet one more plank on the bridge you are building to your alternate ending.
