Hey friends,

Hope you had a good weekend.

Here’s this week’s 1-1-1.

1 Doodle

This was the first year in my life I ditched "this year's resolution" and went with a "90-day resolution" instead.

This week, I finally hit my goal! I failed in the first 90 days (or in corporate speak, Q1). I worked to make it better and failed again in Q2. But when failure triggers something in me, it makes me unstoppable, nothing motivates me more than falling short! I kept tweaking, and in Q3, I finally reached the goal. (I'll share what it was soon in a video, so subscribe to my YouTube channel if you haven’t already!)

This week's doodle is a reminder that you can start your own 90-day resolution right now in September.

1 Do

Pick a 90-day plan to start an activity that helps your health. (For example, I bought a bike and started biking!)

1 Direction

Setting a 90-day resolution gives you an early heads-up to fail, correct, and improve. With a yearly resolution, you wait an entire year to act, probably fail anyway, and end up upset that you wasted twelve full months trying to make it perfect. Shorter cycles let you fail early so you can win sooner. Best of all, unlike rigid calendar quarters, your 90 days can start today! :)

That’s all for this week.

Warmly,

- Ehsan /a-🌞/
