This is all I'm thinking about recently. Like, if I do take this new job, what do I have to say no to in order to accommodate a commute? If we decide to camp every weekend this summer, do we have to say no to Europe in the fall? It's a surprisingly frustrating part of having a babe that I was not anticipating.
I see you, my fellow enthusiast! I had to fully reach my breaking point before accepting that I had to make some choices. And I have to remind myself a lot! I’m trying to reframe my decision-making process so that the nos support the yeses (instead of a yes coming at the expense of a no). To use one of your examples, not going to Europe would enable you to camp every weekend. That framing has helped me zero in on what’s most important and therefore gets priority. If camping every weekend is the prioroty, then yay! You’ve figured out how to make that happen! I’m cheering you on, friend. 💚
