My mindset was already fine — but it wasn’t a million-dollar mindset. — “How about we go see your cousins this weekend? The kids behave lately. We can book a hotel, have a nice time,” I told my husband as we were driving to see a parrots’ show. Our two boys, a toddler and a baby, travelled in peace in the back, laughing…

And how to develop it. — My office window overlooks a massive building that’s being renovated. It’s one of the city’s landmarks, a concert hall opening onto the main plaza.
