Cheers! Raise your cup! It is the end of the Act. Emotions are high, adrenaline is running, and chests are pumping. There is nothing quite like the feeling of pulling something amazing off; there are feelings of joy and exhaustion. This feeling that you have right now is why you went through all the hard work, why you created new habits, and why you stuck to your goals and never let go of them. This feeling is unlike any other. This feeling, right here, in this moment is success, a success that is amplified, because it is being shared with all of those who played a part in pulling off this amazing Act. This feeling is about succeeding together and acknowledging the power of teamwork. Standing on that stage and hearing the applause would not be possible without the help of everyone around you. Therefore, as you raise your glass, don't forget to make a few thank you speeches.

There are always two ways to feel, when one comes to the end of something. Either you feel like you did all you could do and are happy with the results, or you find fault with everything and everyone and start plotting to do it all over again. You may not be overly satisfied right now with how things have turned out. Rather than feeling the joy of a job well done, you are lamenting at all the things that went wrong. Yet, even in your moody mind, there will be things that did work and filled you with a shred of hope. Hang on to that, for that will be the light that will bring you out of your current darkness.
Visual Description
A small figure in a red ringmaster-style costume stands at center holding a golden cup aloft. Behind them looms a large pink whale against a draped teal curtain and a sky of stars, with pink fountain-like sprays arcing upward. Ten golden cups are arranged in a row along a sunlit golden foreground, each casting long dark shadows. The scene is theatrical and celebratory, with bright, warm colors contrasting the cool backdrop.
