Helping overwhelmed creatives and small business owners turn overthinking into expert thinking…and action! 3 useful things every Thursday to gain clarity, get more done, and feel great about it.
Every Thursday I share three useful things to help you turn overthinking into expert thinking. Here are this week’s picks:
1.
Making a quick infographic for my goals helps me see the interconnectedness and importance of what I'm trying to do. Here are my 2023 goals and how I did it, so that you can quickly visualize yours too:
Feel free to pick my brain about how I made this and/or share your own goals or visualisations.
Also know it's ok to not have explicit goals or to make them visual. Do what works for you with the time and energy you have.
2.
I've been learning about neurodivergence lately — my own and others' too. I was delighted to stumble across this mind-blowing megapost on autism (and so much more) from one of my favorite nerdy haunts, MetaFilter
Dozens of great links and insights in the main post as well as in the comments. I particularly enjoyed taking a fascinating journey through my sensory experience of the world — forget what you were taught in school and re-learn the 8 senses of the body
3.
This quote, plus my hyper- and hypo-sensitivities from the 8 Senses article, has me thinking about specific ways I already make tiny habits more satisfying…
What makes a current habit feel more satisfying for you?
What could you do to make a desired habit a delight for your senses?
As always, I'd love to hear what you come up with. Reply and let me know what's working for you. If I get enough responses for a list I'll share them back in a future post. I'd love to see diversity of responses, so don't be shy.

PS. Tiny hack! Thinking of buying a new alarm clock, blender or something else? If you search online with “reddit“ plus the item you want to buy, you'll usually get links to discussion threads with honest reviews at the top of your search results, rather than the search engine optimized (SEO) links.
