The Blog of the Week is... Do Better by Evans Craddock.
 

Just last week, I was in the last stretch of yoga and thought I was going to vomit if I did one more thing. Then, our teacher challenged us to do one final wheel pose and I almost started to cry. But then she said something amazing. “Y’all,” she said, “sometimes you just need to remind yourself that you’re a bad ass mother *#&@#$.”

Awesome. So if this year's shaping up to be too hard, too pricey, too sad, too uncertain... the good news is, you can hack it. Hell, unleash the fury. 

Along those lines, July 1 is offiicially the midpoint of 2013. How's it shaping up for you?

Find out with Grit's Friday Five Challenge questions (just a few little somethin's to think about...):

1. What did you swear you'd accomplish this year, but still haven't? (Are you close? Working on it?)

2. Name your biggest source of struggle in 2013.

3. Name your biggest source of pride in 2013.

4. Name the biggest obstacle you've faced in the last six months. How could you flip this into a net gain/advantage, either in the short or long term?

5. What makes you laugh the hardest? How can you find more of that?
