We live in a culture that thrives on “more is better” : more money, more progress, more improvement.

While growth and ambition can be essential to our personal development, they come with a hidden cost.

Being relevant to others is not about fame, popularity, or applause.

It is about meaning , purpose, and making a difference in somebody else’s life.

It’s easy to feel overwhelmed, especially when you’re pulled in different directions by expectations, pressure, opinions, and what feels like “shoulds” from every corner of life.

But here’s something that can change everything:

Noise is everywhere.

From constant notifications to 24/7 news cycles, podcasts, group chats, and streaming content, our days are inundated by decibel.

Our phones are full of noise.

From sunrise to scroll-before-bed, we’re bombarded with updates, photos, opinions, and reminders that we should be doing more, achieving more, looking better, or living bigger.

Let’s be honest - most of us spend a lot of time focusing on what we didn’t do.

The resolutions we didn’t keep. The goals we didn’t reach. The days we just got by.

But what if, before this year ends, you gave yourself a different kind of check-in?

Ever feel like your day starts before you do?

You’re not alone.
