Hard Work

October 12, 2026•2 min read

Good Monday Morning,

I'm often reminded that to build a business around a life that you love takes a lot of hard work!

I've seen too many people try to fit their lives into their businesses (or careers), instead of creating a schedule that fits their business into their lifestyle.

I'm not opposed to hard work. In fact, I love to work.

Work at what I love.

I often ask myself, "Is this really hard?"

A wise woman once said, "What we do is not hard. However, sometimes we work long hours."

It can also be emotionally hard.

It can be hard on our minds if we think about it more than actually putting our thoughts into action.

Helping transform people's lives is not hard work.

It can be very gratifying.

What if it could be easy?

I've spent decades turning "hard work" into the work I love.

Stopping the grind. Stopping the push. Stopping beating myself up thinking I didn't do enough.

That is hard AND exhausting!

Let's put some ease & flow back into your week.

Each Monday you get to reset how you operate.

Here's your Monday reset:

⚡️[JJJ] Julie's Joyful JOLT⚡️

I'm tired

I'm tired of the grind

I'm tired of trying to make things work

I'm tired of pushing and not achieving

I'm taking a pause

I'm taking a joy break right now

Breathing

Taking a few deep breaths

Ah….

In and out

That feels better

I'm more at ease now

I'm in charge of my week

I'm in charge of how I view this week

I'm in charge of how I want this week to go

I'm choosing JOY

I'm choosing ease and flow

I'm choosing to take joyful intentional action

I'm choosing to feel good about myself today

I am building a business that fits into my lifestyle

I am building a business of impact and it feels good

I am building a life that I love full of joy and excitement

I love building a life that I love

I love building a life that I love

I AM living a life that I love

Yes, I am claiming that TODAY!

Do you have a friend that could use some support? Some guidance? Some direction?

Then I'd love nothing more than to offer them a gifted coaching session. It is truly a gift. Send them this link and if you'd like send them this WDOJ! They'll thank you, and I thank you too!
