Day 213: Alligators 🐊

What swamp are you crossing, and which alligators are pulling your focus?

November 29, 2024

This quote from The Art of Possibility inspired today's prompt:

"I will have to remember, 'I am here today to cross the swamp, not to fight all the alligators.'”

This quote can be interpreted in many ways. To me, it reflects how we often get so consumed by every obstacle that we lose sight of the bigger picture. 

The swamp symbolizes your goal—a destination you’re striving to reach. 

The alligators? They’re the distractions, doubts, or tasks that drain your energy and shift your focus.
