Day 28: Celebrate Progress, Not Perfection


You’re almost there—and that alone is worth celebrating. Today’s challenge is to pause and recognize how far you’ve come.

Forget the stumbles, skipped days, or imperfections. Instead, focus on the moments you showed up for yourself. The times you chose water over soda. The time you got moving even when you were tired. The journal entries. The laughs. The extra servings of greens. The kindness you spread. The sleep you prioritized.

Progress doesn’t always shout—it often whispers. It’s in the little things. And those little things? They add up to transformation.

Take a moment to:

  • Reflect on what’s changed—physically, mentally, emotionally

  • Write down three things you’re proud of

  • Share a win with someone

Growth isn’t about being perfect. It’s about being consistent enough to feel your life shift.

Today, give yourself the credit you’ve earned. You’re doing something powerful—and it shows.

The Quiet Crisis No One Wants to Admit: What Massive Fee Hikes and Wage Changes Will Really Do to Cayman

Image
Cayman is standing on a knife’s edge right now, and most people don’t even realize it. Everyone heard about the massive fee hikes the government just announced — the ones that target non-Caymanians, employers, and key industries across the board. And yes, the minimum wage increase sounds great on paper. But when you zoom out and put all the pieces together, you see something terrifying: We’re about to break the very engine that keeps this country running. And when the engine goes, the entire vehicle — economy, businesses, Caymanian jobs, cost of living, everything — goes down with it. Let’s talk honestly about what’s coming. No sugar-coating. No politics. Just reality. 1. Businesses Are Already Walking on Thin Ice — These Hikes Push Them Off the Cliff The new fees aren’t small bumps. They are massive , sometimes jumping by 400–800% overnight: Driving licenses for non-Caymanians leaping from $75 to $600 . Business licenses for companies with non-Caymanian interests jumping fr...

Pot, Poker, and Priorities: When a Community Bets Against Its Own Future

Image
There’s a mind-boggling trend happening in some communities: a baffling choice to legalize marijuana and gambling while rejecting or indefinitely delaying infrastructure projects like cruise ship facilities that could bring sustainable, long-term economic growth. One has to pause and ask — where did this type of thought process even come from? How did the priorities get so inverted? Let’s call it what it is: a bet on instant gratification over generational progress. The Economics of Escapism Marijuana and gambling are often marketed as economic stimulants — easy tax revenue, job creation, tourism magnets. But these industries primarily cater to escapism . They thrive not on productivity but on indulgence. And while there may be short-term wins in licensing fees or increased consumer spending, they are also tied to social costs: addiction, crime, healthcare strain, and a distracted workforce. Now, compare that to a cruise facility — a gateway to tourism dollars, entrepreneurship, cu...

The first Handshake- Hee hee

Image
In my last post, I shared how powerful it feels to be recognized by someone when traveling — that moment when a familiar face turns a sea of strangers into a sense of belonging. It’s a reminder that we are all nobody until we are somebody to someone. But there’s another kind of recognition that carries just as much impact — meeting someone for the first time in person after years of only chatting online or connecting over video calls. In today’s world, so many of our professional relationships start digitally. We exchange messages on LinkedIn, collaborate on projects over Zoom, or brainstorm ideas through endless email threads. Trust, rapport, and even friendship are built in these virtual spaces long before we ever share the same room. And then one day, it happens. That handshake. That first face-to-face conversation with someone you’ve “known” for years. Suddenly, this person isn’t just a name in your inbox or a voice on a call — they’re real, present, and invested. This ...
