Recognizing the Power of Thought

The host discusses the power of thought and how it can create opportunities to take care of oneself, even when busy.

This realization led her to identify other areas in her life where she started something and circled back to it later. She encourages listeners to start activities they enjoy, even if they don't finish them immediately, and suggests ideas like starting a puzzle, watching a show, or getting a library card.
