"Mind My Business" Mode
Updated: 16 hours ago
This is what happens when I activate the "Mind My Business" mode.

1 - How "Mind My Business" went in March 2022
Week No. 1:
A member of my family breaks my heart, making it clear she wants nothing to do with me anymore—my dreams, or my "crazy" projects. Basically, my existence wouldn’t make a difference to her life. I take note. Thank you. Have a good life, too!
Week No. 2:
A "friend" undeniably shows me he never intended to offer me true friendship. In fact, he wanted me to provide professional services for free… for his own projects. Except that there’s no "stupid" sign written on my forehead. Just a "cool girl" sign. Thank you for the lesson. Good luck to you, too!
Week No. 3:
Saddened by the above and tired of the negativity saturating social media, I "cocoon" myself. During this detox, I focus on my website. By the end of the month, I complete its core in both French AND English. On March 15, 2022, my self-made, positive & motivating personal development website officially launches.
Week No. 4:
Strengthened by this accomplishment, I feel a surge of pride and satisfaction. I shift my focus to another pending project. Switching from author to publisher mode, I finalize my first poetry book. On March 21, 2022, my very first book as an artist-author is published. Finally.
Week No. 5:
My son and I fend for ourselves in this challenging life. The real man in my life? Him. On March 31, 2022, we change a flat tire together for the very first time. It’s surprisingly simple. I’m not sure why people make such a fuss about it...
2 - Fast Forward to January 2025
Reflecting on those weeks, I realize how pivotal those moments were for my growth. Every setback became fuel for action.
Here are my updated takeaways:
Not everyone is reliable—and that’s okay.
Help isn’t always available, but you are capable of finding solutions.
Fend for yourself.
Develop versatile skills to empower your independence.
Learn to do things yourself. It saves time, money, and unnecessary stress.
Stay focused on your goals. Don’t get distracted by noise or negativity.
Work quietly. Let your results speak for you.
Channel anger and frustration into creation. Transform challenges into beauty.
By keeping my "Mind My Business" mode active, I’ve built resilience and unlocked achievements I never thought possible. What started as heartbreak turned into breakthroughs—all because I refused to give up.
3 - Your Turn
Take a moment to reflect on your own experiences. Have you faced similar moments of heartbreak, betrayal, or adversity? How did you navigate through them?
Grab your journal and write about:
A challenging situation that pushed you to grow.
The steps you took to overcome it.
The lessons you learned and how they shaped you.
Use this reflection to uncover your own strength and resilience. Sometimes, the act of writing helps bring clarity and transformation. Your story might be waiting to inspire you.
