oday, I want to talk about a quote that’s been sitting with me lately. It’s from George Bernard Shaw, who said:“Life isn’t about finding yourself. Life is about creating yourself.”

It's October, and if you're anything like me, you might be feeling that familiar end-of-year fatigue starting to creep in. You know what I'm talking about—that feeling where your initial New Year's excitement has worn off, but December still feels so far away. You're tired, maybe a little burned out, and the thought of pushing through the final quarter feels overwhelming.Well, I'm here to tell you that this feeling is completely normal, and more importantly, there are practical ways to reignite your motivation and finish this year strong. Today, we're going to talk about overcoming year-end fatigue and staying motivated all the way through December.

Learning to no longer be young — to accept and understand that stage of life — is the longest and hardest lesson we face.It’s often interpreted not as a lament about getting older, but as an observation that maturity is a continuous, lifelong process — one that requires wisdom, humility, and grace.

I can’t believe we’re already in October. And if you’re anything like me, this time of year comes with two competing thoughts:On one hand, ‘Wow, the year is almost over.’And on the other, ‘Wait… I still have so much I wanted to do this year!’Here’s the good news: you don’t have to wait until January to make a fresh start. In fact, October is the perfect time to refocus, reset, and reignite your goals.Why? Because you still have 90 full days left in 2025. Ninety days — that’s a quarter of a year. It’s enough time to make meaningful progress. It’s enough time to change your habits, your energy, your health, even your career trajectory.And today, I’m going to walk you through what I call a 90-Day Power Shift. It’s a way to stop putting your goals on hold for ‘someday’ and start taking powerful action today.So if you’ve been thinking, ‘It’s too late… I’ll just start in January’ — I want you to lean in. Because it’s not too late. You have time. And what you do in the next 90 days can set you up for an incredible 2026Join the Last 90 day Challenge here: https://leadingyourself.myflodesk.com/last90day
