Chris Evergreen here. Welcome to your daily goodwill
for Saturday, January 31st. Last day of January.
You made it through a whole month. And if you're
anything like me, you're looking at today like
it's bonus time. No big commitments. No pressure
to be productive. Just a Saturday that sits at
the end of things. The temptation is to either
go full steam ahead or completely check out.
Your brain wants a clear mission, rest mode or
hustle mode. But Saturdays like this one work
best when you let them be a little bit of both.
Here's today's advice. Pick one small thing that'll
make you feel accomplished, and then give yourself
permission to coast the rest of the day. Not
a project, not a deep clean of your entire life.
One thing. Maybe it's finally dealing with that
drawer that won't close properly. Or responding
to three emails you've been avoiding. Or taking
a 20 -minute walk just to move your body. Something
simple. Something that takes less than an hour.
The key is to do it early. Get it done before
lunch if you can. Because once it's finished,
the rest of your day becomes guilt -free. You
already did the thing. Now you can read, nap,
watch something, stare at the wall. Whatever.
No part of your brain gets to whisper that you
wasted the day. You didn't. You already won.
And your good will move for today. Text someone
you haven't talked to in a while. Just a quick
check -in. Nothing heavy. Just, hey, thinking
of you. Hope you're good. It takes 30 seconds,
and it reminds someone they're still on your
radar. That's your daily goodwill for Saturday,
January 31st. One small win makes the whole day
feel lighter. Talk soon.
