1. Accept where you are in your life right now.

In fact, don’t just accept it. Celebrate it. You made it this far from where you started and that’s incredible.

2. Do a digital detox.

That constant scrolling might be leading to you thinking that everyone has it more together than you when in reality, you’re just seeing the highlight reels, it’s not the full story.

3. Learn something new that will get you closer to your goals.

Everything you want to achieve is within your power if you’re willing to commit to your growth. So learn new skills and implement them.

4. Confront that negative voice in your head telling you you’re not enough.

It is wrong. You are enough. You always were enough. You will always be enough.

5. Let go of the need for material goods to define your happiness.

It’s awesome to feel comfortable enough to buy the things you want. But possessions are not a substitute for meaningful self love. In fact, it can often be a distraction.

an update from justin on the future of SoCurious

Uncategorized

I feel like I’m entering a new season of creative evolution. And with that change, I want to continue to grow and evolve this newsletter and the SoCurious brand.

A few things to expect:

Before the end of the year, I want to take the first steps to transition SoCurious from an inspirational platform to being a short-form education platform. For me, this means teaching bite-sized courses on personal development, creativity, and launching a side hustle. But I’d also like to go deep on the bigger philosophical questions of meaning, purpose, and belonging.
In conjunction with that, later this year, I plan to release a new self-paced course that expands on the content of the Reset Workbook
And finally, this month, I will release new art prints and cards in the online shop

While it’s still early days on the expansion, YOU are a meaningful part of this community and I want you to be the first to know about the small and big changes I’m aiming for over the coming months.

To help with that transition, I’ve got a question: what’s one course you’d like me to teach? (It can literally be anything)
