Hello beautiful people!
Let’s thank the Academy!
Listen up!
Today’s work: Grab a journal, grab a favorite pen or pencil, get into a state of bliss, and then write up several versions of your acceptance speech! Who’s a must-thank? What will you say about your creative journey? Who and what will wait ’til the pressline backstage or the follow-up version you do via social media or on the morning shows?
For my non-showbiz creatives, when you’re profiled about your creation and your work out in the world, who’s a must-mention? When you pen your next book, who’s thanked in the acknowledgments section? When you’re asked who inspired you and kept you going at the beginning of your journey — now that you’re living that next-tier life — you’ll have your list ready because you’re building it starting now!
Really get into the feeling of it all and don’t do it ’til you’re in a resting state that feels pretty damn good. This is a delicious task filled with lots of good prepaving for a reality Next-Tier You will be living, so give it the focus it deserves! Give yourself the time and energy for fully enjoying this creative expression and full-on fantasizing. You deserve it!
Don’t dismiss this as a, “Yeah, yeah, yeah… I know what I’ll say pretty much and I’ll fill in the rest with my must-include folks based on the project itself when the time comes,” challenge. Really get this thought through, written up, and processed at a cellular level! Let it change you to feel the intention of writing this up in your own handwriting. Let it deeply affect you to be so bold as to have a #BigOl5 level of enoughness about knowing that this moment is coming.
Because it is.
’til tomorrow… stay ninja!
