A New Week is a New Chance to Be Better


Hey Reader,

Show up. Every day. At work, at home, with you family, for you kids, for yourself; show up. I admit its easier said than done and sometimes expectations are better than realty. The difference between you, the person you want to be, and the person who wants to be like you, is how often you show up and give 100% regardless of anything else.

Ken's Takes and Commentary

We've been in transition for about a month with respect to this newsletter. I've decided to "democratize" my takes and commentary on current events. It's been helpful mainly because it reduces production time for the newsletter and allows for me to cover more content in a more timely fashion. It also gives me and Life with Ken more credibility overall. The one draw back from doing my news takes outside of this newsletter is that it's not archived and I like the idea of world building and being able to effectively refer back to certain information. To that end, I've created a new page on the Life with Ken main website, under the "Media" tab, where you can see an archive of all my X threads on interesting news stories. I hope you enjoy and capitlize on having access to content in this way and as we finish this transition be sure to give feedback to help us continue to optimize our offerings.

Encouragement For Your Week

This week i want to encourage you to not over think things. I can be an over thinker sometimes. You take one scenario go three or four different directions with it and before you know it you're in a rabbit hole trying to figure out how you can go off grid; or you've thought yourself into a depression doom cycle. You've got to try to strike a balance where you are serious and considerate enough of and for your future, while at the same time being present enough where what's on your agenda for today is sufficient responsibility. I have found that sometimes the expectations of today can make you worry about your future. You may say, "i'm not doing enough" or "is this going to make a difference" or "same ole same ole" or "things will never change." If your responsibilities for today don't give you hope for tomorrow find something before the day is over that will. Also, don't forget to eat and sleep because maybe you're just a little cranky.

Have a blessed week!

All the best,

Ken

Hello Reader, I need to focus on other stuff. Welcome back to the crash out. As you may know i've been crashing out and using Life with Ken as a medium to process through it. It started almost a month ago when I burnt out from working. I usually try to avoid burning out but it's hard for me for more reasons than one. I hate whining on my platform, but for the sake of the crash out, essentially I'm doing too much stuff and the stuff that I am doing is unfulfilling. The reality is in some...

Hello Reader, I feel good going into this week. I was spending a lot of time bogged down by things but now I have re-adjusted my focus. Not everything that is important requires immediate action. One of my many shortcomings I feel, is that when I start something it can be difficult for me to stop until I finish. The feeling of finishing is satisfying. What's additionally satisfying is getting to start something else without still having something left undone. I'm going to New Jersey in a...

Hey Reader, So, I burnt out last week. Everything came to a halt. Virtually by Wednesday I had no gas left in the tank. I am sorry to say that I don't want to do this anymore. But, I am going to continue to do so. Here's why: If I Stop Life with Ken I Silence Myself - This endeavor was conceived on financial health and wealth generation, and on giving myself a voice. Back when I started this I didn't care who was listening because I understood that probably no one was. No one was really...
