I love the value point there. Values form the foundation to guide your decisions. Deciding them makes everything simpler. And please who's reading this, DON'T go with the flow.

You've just given people a "wake-up call"!

DON'T go with the flow is a simple message, but one most people need to hear over and over.

Going with the flow sounds chill and easy… until we realize the flow is leading us straight to regret, misalignment, or a life built on someone else’s terms.

I love this clear guide to managing the chaos and living intentionally. I've been on a path to do this for over ten years, and I have found great comfort, joy and balance in being mindful and less reactive. I'm definitely more emotionally stable than I once was. I really loved this piece and how it fits in the theme for April. Thank you. Love, Virginia

I'm not sure I've heard of anchors in this context before, but I do use them. I've even tried drawing temporary tattoos on the back of my hand so that when I noticed it, it acts as an anchor, prompting me to regroup.

I could and might end up writing a whole post about overthinking, if only I could stop overthinking it.

Some good points made and I love a good metaphor and with storms, ships sails and anchors it's a very nautical one here.

Great entry to the challenge Moon.

You just hit the target. No dilly dallying. Sharp, sliced all the but-s and oh-s, how-s and why-s. Right straight on intent. Wow......
