In that way, I ensure that my life reflects my values.
Gretchen Rubin
We're happier when we live up to our values, if we live up to our beliefs and aspirations for ourselves. I remind myself, "I must make time to read. I'm a reader; that's at the core of my identity. One of my earliest memories of my whole life is learning to read LITTLE HOUSE IN THE BIG WOODS for myself. I can't "Be Gretchen" if I don't take time to read.

I love that your motto is "Be Gretchen". Also, I love Little House. My mom read the first few to us, then we read the rest ourselves.
