What matters to me? That's a question I don’t ask myself often enough. Busy with the hustle and bustle of life.

It’s also the key to defining what I need to do, when I show up to do the work.

You see, the 'work' isn't merely my job. It's what I do to create value for me my loved ones. It’s making breakfast, a 20-minute jog, crafting flash fiction. This 'work' is my expression of a life of substance.

And how do I cultivate such a life? I 'show up and do the work.' I commit myself to what nourishes well-being, brings joy, and fosters my growth. There’s nothing special about banana pancakes, but the joy they bring to my boys makes every minute spent in the kitchen worth it, every time.

Am I showing up for life? Am I living my values? Life isn’t a mindless grind. I know what truly matters to me and I dedicate time and energy to those pursuits: health, family, career and creativity.

Not the results, but the act of training, of caring, of delivering and of creating: thise are fulfilling.

That is why I wake up, step and the work. Every day.
