Pick the smallest next step. Momentum beats intensity. Look for one lever you can pull today—sleep, boundaries, a script, or a single conversation. Next: choose one related article and try it once, then adjust. If you feel stuck, shrink the goal to a 10‑minute experiment and repeat it three times before changing strategies.

Solo Confidence

You’re not aiming for perfection—just a cleaner next move. Look for one lever you can pull today—sleep, boundaries, a script, or a single conversation.
