Feeling unproductive can be disheartening, but it’s essential to recognize that even small accomplishments matter. To combat these feelings, Paula suggests making a list of daily achievements.
174 Days to Election Day
With just 174 days until the general election on November 3rd, Paula emphasizes the importance of taking daily actions to engage in democracy. Here are some steps you can take:
- Work on your ballot: Familiarize yourself with candidates and issues.
- Utilize resources like Blue Voter.org for information.
- Check your local public radio station for coverage on candidates and upcoming issues.
Paula encourages everyone to give themselves ample time to research and prepare, tackling it bit by bit. Remember, every small effort counts in the journey to uphold democracy.
