9.3 Cancel an Obligation that Drains You · Just Enough Joy

Sarahn Sankofa: Hello, beautiful people. Today is September the 3rd, and today's calendar challenge is cancel an obligation that drains you. We've all been there. We get so excited. We're like, I'm gonna plan out my year. I'm going to schedule my appointments for the rest of the century. And I'm going to be so prepared to get everything out of the way and schedule five months in advance, or five weeks, or five days, or five minutes, because I can. Do it. And then you get there and you're like, no, this is too much. I'm drained. And sometimes your joy is in letting out whatever is draining you. Drain the drain, okay? Yeah. Cancel an obligation that drains you today. Maybe you committed too soon. Maybe you overly committed. Maybe you committed too early. Whatever it is, you can just politely say, you know what? Can we reschedule? You know what? I might not be able to make it. You know what? Let's pivot. And that's okay. There is joy in the pivot. So today, cancel an obligation that drains you. And remember, joy is not a luxury, it's a lifeline. Just enough is more than enough, Saran says.
