🌟 Letting Go 🌟

It can feel like January comes with pressure to take on new things. Up until 12/30/23, I had a pretty impressive Duolingo streak—1073 days! Somewhere along the way, my focus shifted and I had completely lost the spirit of learning. The thing is, I KNOW that gamification can quickly turn sour for me; I knew I had to give myself permission to abandon the streak. Letting go of my streak gave me an opportunity to practice letting go while the stakes are low.
