I just grabbed a hot coffee with a splash of French vanilla and cuddled up with Bogie to write to you.
You can’t even believe how big these kitties are getting!
I included a pic so you can see for yourself.
They got a visit from the vet this week for a quick checkup and they did not love it.
BUT they got treats afterward so they forgave me. AND they’re perfectly healthy so that’s the win of the week!
I also did some redecorating in my home office this week, making it the office that my Future Self would work in. It feels elevated, luxurious, and comfortable and ready for the next chapter.
I think I told you that I finally finished the big project of evergreening all of my courses (check them out here!) and now I’m on to my “next”.
I’ll share more about that next week so stay tuned!
I’m so excited but I’m not gonna lie, it feels intimidating and a bit overwhelming and I have no idea what I’m doing.
BUT… that hasn’t stopped me before! I’ll figure it out like I have everything else – one step at a time.
And finally, this week’s article is something I get asked about a lot.
People ask me… “What do you do DAILY to be SELF Made? What habits do rich AF people have that I don’t?”
So… I thought I would tell you!
Keep reading for the 3 daily habits of SELF Made millionaires (that you’re not doing yet).
And now I’m off to play with this kitten and head to brunch in a bit!
Enjoy your day!
3 Daily Habits of SELF Made Millionaires
Let’s cut to the chase—wealthy, SELF Made people don’t just think differently. They act differently. Every. Single. Day.
And if you’re wondering why your bank account isn’t reflecting your ambitions yet, it’s not because you’re missing some secret strategy.
It’s because you’re not doing what they do. (Yet.)
Here’s what separates the rich-as-fuck, effortlessly successful from the ones still struggling:
1. They Move Like the Wealthy Version of Themselves NOW
SELF Made people don’t wait until they have money to start acting like someone who makes money.
They make decisions, set boundaries, and invest like the future million-dollar version of themselves—before the millions hit the bank.
I remember when I was just starting out, broke as a joke, staring at my laptop screen wondering how I was going to make this work.
But instead of playing small, I asked myself: ‘What would Future Cynthia do?’
Would she second-guess herself? No. No she would not.
So, I made moves—invested in coaches and courses, showed up like I was already successful, and backed my decisions with confidence.
And guess what? Everything shifted.
Opportunities I never saw before suddenly became obvious, and I stepped into a whole new level of success because other people started seeing me the way I saw mySELF.
SELF Made Sunday Action Step: Start making decisions today like your Future SELF would. What would they say yes to? No to? Do differently?
2. They BE More Than They DO (And Protect Their Energy Like a MF)
SELF Made people don’t just grind all day.
They protect their energy and peace like a MF.
They’re intentional about what (and who) gets their time, and they don’t waste energy on distractions, drama, or shit that doesn’t move the needle.
They give themselves space to think, strategize, and step back so they can be strategic and intentional.
I make it a point to have daily unfocused time where I let my mind wander and create big ideas.
I also fiercely guard my energy—I don’t entertain negativity, pointless meetings, or energy-draining people. Ask anyone who knows me.
Success needs space, and I make sure to create it. In fact, some of my best business moves came from moments when I wasn’t “working” at all.
SELF Made Sunday Action Step: Stop glorifying busywork. Audit your time and energy. Who or what is draining you? Cut it out.
Then, build in time for reflection, strategy, and creativity. That’s where the real breakthroughs happen.
3. They Sell Every Day—Unapologetically
I cannot stress this one enough… SELF Made people don’t hesitate to put their offers out there.
They know their work is valuable and they make sure the world knows it too.
Meanwhile, most people are too scared of rejection to even make the offer! And, that’s why their business doesn’t grow.
I personally love selling BUT I didn’t always…I thought selling all the time would make me seem pushy or desperate.
Plus, I used to worry that people would think I just wanted their money.
But that was a me problem.
It was just a story I was telling mySELF.
When I rewrote that story to be, “I have something amazing that could help people and not telling them about it is downright selfish,” everything shifted.
I began to look at “selling” as “serving”.
You see, if you believe in what you do, you have a responsibility to share it – with confidence. And without apology.
SELF Made Sunday Action Step: Sell something today. Even if it’s through a DM, a post, or a story. The more you sell, the more you serve. Period.
The Bottom Line
Wealthy, SELF Made people act like the version of themselves they’re becoming. They create and play the long game. They give themselves space to think and protect their energy. And they sell—daily.
So, the real question is: Are you going to wait to be rich to start thinking like a rich person?
Or are you going to start moving like your Future SELF today?
The choice, as always, is yours.
