———————-
At the end of the average day or week, how would you describe that time just passed?
Was it a “good week” or a “bad week”.
I’d wager in a fair proportion of the time, we’d chose ‘bad’.
Because us humans are very good at just noticing the ‘less good stuff’.
And quickly forgetting the better bits.
Or just putting them down to ‘expected behaviour’.
If you actually stopped and listed every single thing you’d done in the last 10,080 minutes…………….
And put a tick or cross next to them to say if they were a ‘good’ or ‘bad’ decision……………..
I would think we would have many more ticks that crosses.
Out of those thousands of decisions, you managed to (delete as appropriate):
Get out of bed, clean your teeth, get changed, eat, feed others, get others somewhere, get somewhere yourself do thousands of tasks throughout your work day, eat some more, sort some others out……………………….
And so on.
We allow those few crosses a far larger power than they deserve.
And we, sometimes, use them as a justification for more crosses.
Rather than just accepting them for what they are and getting back to getting some ticks.
The odd ‘less good’ food choice weighing on our minds.
Or leading to more ‘less good’ food choices.
“Once I did bad and that I heard ever. Twice I did good and that I heard never.”
Both in ourselves and in others, it’s very easy to focus on the ‘bad’.
And to barely notice all the ‘good’ that we, or they, do.
But, it doesn’t have to be that way.
Recognise all the great stuff you’re doing.
And use that momentum to build on.
It’s just a few more better decisions on top of the thousands you’re doing already every day 🙂
Much love,
Jon ‘Shamone’ Hall and Matt ‘Thriller’ Nicholson
