When the News Doesn't Come 😑

Tonight, I'm going to bed with a little heaviness in my chest. Not devastation, not heartbreak - just that quiet deflated feeling you get when you expected a call, or a message, or a sign and it didn't come. Not bad news - just no news. And somehow, that can feel even heavier.

When life doesn't move at my speed…
When the answers don't land when I want them…
When the timing is just not yet…
I have just one choice:

To take the reins of the one thing I still have control over - me.

So tonight, instead of replaying the waiting game or trying to decode silence, I'm making a plan. A small, steady, doable plan. The kind that builds strength and belief brick by brick.

Tomorrow morning, I'm starting my day with a 5K.
No negotiation. No delaying.
Just me, my legs, my breath, my determination.

I can't control timing.
I can't control bureaucracy or decisions that happen behind closed doors.

But I can control how I show up for myself.
I can move.
I can honour my health.
I can choose commitment.
I can build my confidence through simple, daily follow-through.

And that's the thing-
When the world feels uncertain, sometimes the only solution is to anchor yourself in the one consistent, reliable, predictable thing:
the action you choose for yourself.

Tomorrow morning, I'll get out there and get in my 5k.
And the next day.
And the days after that.
Not because it brings the news faster - but because it brings me back to me.

Now that's powerful.

✨ Resilience in Action
Self-trust through daily follow-through
Tonight, I'm building a bridge back to confidence by choosing an action I can control. Repeated small commitments teach us that we can count on ourselves and that is where real resilience begins.
