Today I felt a mix of clarity and doubt. I recognized I can combine tools instead of restricting myself, which took pressure off. Presenting my Notion system gave me pride but also reminded me that new users will feel overwhelmed at first. Securing the townhome with Lexi felt like a big win and showed me how far I’ve come in taking action instead of floating aimlessly. Even with setbacks, I know the system is powerful, and I just need to keep moving forward.
