I saw a video yesterday.

The lady just graduated from Uni

She had a bag full of ideas to work on, but first, she wanted a clear mental picture of each step.

From point zero to the finish line.

Even if she knew she shouldn’t think that way.

Honestly, it made sense to me.

No matter what anyone says, it doesn’t feel okay to not have everything figured out.

How could it be okay

When some of us can’t cook without laying out the utensils and ingredients we need beforehand.

What about those of us who must prepare what to say before calling?

If you’re like that, then you get it.

You get why it’s difficult to accept that it’s okay to not figure everything out before you start.

Is meal prepping for experts or novices?

I hope this mention of food isn’t making your belly grumble like mine. It's noon here and I still haven’t had breakfast.
