Steady Amid Chaos
Find your calm in a world that moves faster each day.
Seth Thomas

Keep a little fire burning; however small, however hidden.
Each of us carries a spark inside—a quiet source of motivation and purpose. Even when life feels turbulent, that ember can illuminate our next step. You don’t need a blazing bonfire to make progress; sometimes, a small flame of belief is enough to light your path.
Nurture that inner spark by taking a few moments each day to reflect on what truly matters. Your personal flame of determination may flicker under pressure, but as long as you protect it, you’ll find the resilience to keep going.
Keep the spark alive, and you’ll always find a reason to rise.
Today’s Challenge
Identify one small, meaningful habit you can keep alive for just 5 minutes today—like journaling, mindful breathing, or even a quick gratitude list. Guard that time and let your inner fire burn brighter.
