I’ve been putting this off. I read the article when you put it out and subconsciously shunted it aside. But now that I’m taking two weeks off from the office job (so excited about that!) I’m going to sit down and make that list. Thanks for the prompting to reread it in your roundup article.

woot woot - 2 weeks sounds amazing!! I think we all ought to share our lists as quite a few people said they were going to do it! Hmmm… might be a good thread or post?

I write myself lists on the daily for all things. Mostly so I won’t forget but it also keeps me accountable. Now I will call it my badass list 🤩🤩

This is soo cool. We are constantly in the state of “I'm not enough”. Maybe this can change it to “I'm capable and enough and I can keep pushing”

Great idea! Thanks for sharing about Jen Gottlieb. I'm not familiar with her, but I'll definitely check her out. I love Amy Porterfield and have learned so much from her. I'm going to work on my Badass list this weekend!

It’s so uplifting to remind ourselves of what we’ve accomplished instead of concentrating on what we haven’t. I think I’ll write that list down this weekend.

OMG I loved that episode too and bought her book! Still waiting for me on my Kindle, but I’ll start it someday soon. Thanks for the reminder that I haven’t started my badass list yet!

Oh that is so funny you listened to it too! Go make that badass list and put on there that you’re killin’ it on Substack! I love your consistency here and the Monday Matchstick prompts light me up!

We're constantly reminding ourselves of what we haven't archived, or how bad we are in all things, so It's nice to have a little reminder from time to time. This badass list would be the perfect prompt writing activity that I think I'll do it with my friend right now.

Yessss you are so right that we too often remind ourselves of the negative —- the badass list is one of my favorite things. I think I am going to go start a fresh one! I hope yours was fabulous!
