9/6/2025-Find your nice, kind weekend voice

Throughout the week, a voice inside your head tells you what to do, where to go, how to react, and, unfortunately, how to feel.

But on the weekends, you need to shut that voice up.

Your voice that keeps reminding you during the week to "close the ACME account…CLOSE the ACME account" is not welcome on weekends.

Pick it up again on Monday…today is a wonderful late-summer day, and you need to recharge!

This weekend, use your fun, accepting, gracious voice when talking to yourself.

Forget the intensity of this past week.

Your work during the week to try and close the ACME account should not get in the way of having weekend fun.

If your weekend voice doesn’t lift you up, kick it out of the building and bring in a new voice telling you nice things.
