Here’s my challenge to you— Go write yourself a Post It Note today. Put it somewhere you’ll see it often. Let me know how long it takes for that ONE little Post It to reframe how you’re approaching your day. It won’t be long. 😉 |
| N- P.S. I’m totally thinking about making this a Color Outside ‘thing.’ Where we feature our Post It affirmations and the powerful stories behind them on Color Outside’s Insta. What do you think? What should we call the series? We need a good hashtag. 🤔 Comment and let me know if you have any ideas! |
