It's ok to rest
As entrepreneur it can sometimes feel like everything depends on you, like there's this weight on your shoulders to make it all work. AND that doesn't mean you can never rest. Sometimes doing something that's not working *is* the best thing you can do.

Your ideal work environment (and why it matters)
We don't all work best in the same environment: Some of us love group work, some of us hate it. Some of us get so much more done when we are working alone and some of us thrive when we can co-work. Understanding where you do your best work so you will lead to more satisfaction, success and productivity! And if you have team that works for you, supporting their unique work environments is key. // More on work environments in "I work best alone" and "Teamwork doesn't always make the dream work" episodes // [ www.jackiejohnstone.ca ]

Loving myself into the next version of me
Personal growth shouldn't require that we beat ourselves up. You can't shame, force or discipline yourself into true, lasting transformation. And your subconscious mind is so much more powerful when you're intentionally moving TOWARDS something rather than away from something. ( www.jackiejohnstone.ca )

We can't out-hustle our energy
I feel like this is a lesson I learn over and over and over again. How a super quiet call out of copywriting projects showed me once again the importance of my energy in my business. The thoughts we think, the beliefs we have, our intentions, desires, excitement and feelings MATTER way more than our actions. ( www.jackiejohnstone.ca/more )

Teamwork doesn't always make the dream work (and that's ok!)
We aren't all built for small groups. I'm not. There's a bunch of reasons why in my design. Understanding the Human Design Penta has helped me forgive myself for judging myself for thinking group projects in school were frustrating and I'd have been better off doing it all myself!

The "wait to respond" Shelf
The way we are all meant to make decisions and a hack helped me "wait to respond" (a key piece of my Human Design Decision Making Strategy) so I'd know exactly which ideas were the right ones to commit to. If you're a Generator or Manifesting Generator you may want to give this a try.
