A CEO might resist hiring an executive assistant, believing they should handle their own calendar. A CFO might struggle with presentations, thinking they should master PowerPoint themselves. The accommodation isn't just about capability - it's about optimizing time and energy for what truly matters.

Where in your life are you stuck because you think you should be able to do it yourself? What accommodation is hiding in plain sight? Sometimes the answers are simple once we give ourselves permission to see them. Ask yourself: What is my time worth? My sanity? My serenity?

This understanding led me to the GEM practice - a daily ritual that combines Gratitude, Excitement, and Manifestation. It takes traditional gratitude practices several steps further: We start by listing three things we're grateful for right now. Then we note three things we're excited about - what's already planned or coming up. Finally, we list three things we're manifesting - our deeper desires and hopes. But here's the key: we also explore the root of those desires. If we want a promotion, are we seeking recognition, financial security, respect, or perhaps just an office with better lighting?
