Slow Steps, Beautiful Journey

Embracing Your Personal Pace

Founder’s Notes

Dear EZICOZI family!
In our last newsletter, we explored finding simplicity in chaos. Today, I'd love to share some meaningful discoveries I've made through my journey with running.

My Running Story

I'm a slow runner, and proud of it. When I talk about 'running,' I'm not just referring to the physical act—I'm talking about all those small steps we take in life's journey. Initially, watching others sprint ahead with their impressive achievements made me anxious. "Why am I so slow? Why can't I make it look effortless like everyone else?" But over time, I discovered something profound: what truly matters isn't our speed, but how we move forward.

Slow Steps, Beautiful Journey

Embracing Our Imperfect Journey

I couldn't stick to running every morning. Some days I was exhausted, others packed with meetings, and sometimes I simply didn't feel like it. Yet I never gave up completely. Whether I managed three runs a week, two, or even just one—it taught me something valuable. Consistency isn't about perfection; it's about keeping that spark alive, no matter what.

What Running Has Taught Me

Running has become my greatest life teacher. The most important lesson? No two days are alike. Sometimes running feels as natural as breathing, other times each step feels like climbing a mountain. But every single day matters because I showed up as I was and took at least one step forward.

EZICOZI's Daily Practice

At EZICOZI, we view each day as a gentle run. We don't chase perfect organization. Instead, we start small, moving at a pace that feels right. Sometimes, simply finding a home for one item is a victory worth celebrating.

Today's Simple Actions

1. The Power of Beginning

Pick just one thing today. One item you want to have a dedicated spot for each morning. Maybe it's your phone, your glasses, or your keys. Create a cozy corner where it belongs.
"Welcome home, this is your special spot"

2. Finish Your Day Like a Cool-Down Stretch

You know that wonderful feeling after completing a run? You can capture that same satisfaction by simply returning one item to its place before bed. It's a small ritual that marks another day well lived.

These tiny movements, gathering momentum day by day, naturally create a more peaceful space—just as running gradually becomes part of who we are.
