WEEKLY RECAP February 29th - March 6th, 2020 |
|
|
Highlights from the Blog and Facebook |
|
|
| | Saturday, February 29th (AM) Structure and limits and boundaries often get a bad rap, because those words make us feel controlled or restricted. The opposite is actually true. Those concepts set us free. | | |
|
| | Saturday, February 29th (PM) I choose to believe there’s always a way to feel better that doesn’t involve hurting ourselves or anybody else. I choose to believe that, but I don’t know if it’s true. | | |
|
|
| | Sunday, March 1st (AM) AVery often out there in the world people will try their best to convince you that you do not have the right to be who you are. They will try, effortfully, to convince you that . . . | | |
|
| | Sunday, March 1st (PM) When we’re worked up, we have a tendency to look only at the here and now— what’s stressing us now, what’s threatening us now, what thoughts are kicking us now. | | |
|
|
| | Monday, March 2nd (AM) Ease up on yourself. You may like your job, you may dislike your job; but don’t make it a more important part of your life than it has to be. You’re a LOT more than your job. | | |
|
| | Monday, March 2nd (PM) Your job is to create a life you like, and that allows you the opportunity to pursue your goals and live your values. That may look exactly like . . . | | |
|
|
| | Tuesday, March 3rd (Blog) "GOALS ARE EVERYDAY TOOLS. REALLY." Many people drastically underestimate the importance of goals and plans to feeling good. Humans have a hard time consistently feeling good if we’re not purposefully engaged in forward motion. | | |
|
| | Tuesday, March 3rd (PM) We need to remind ourselves that not being loved by someone specific does not mean we are inadequate, undesirable, or unlovable. It’d be nice if we were all loved by the exact people we wanted to love us, in the exact ways we wanted to be loved. | | |
|
|
| | Wednesday, March 4th (AM) Entrenched, stubborn problems are usually entrenched and stubborn because they’re complicated. They’re usually operating on multiple levels to keep us stuck. | | |
|
| | Wednesday, March 4th (PM) Diagnoses can be helpful, they can be distracting, they can be right or wrong; but they do not define your personhood or necessarily predict your prognosis. | | |
|
|
| | Thursday, March 5th (Blog): “LETTING GO OF A LOVE.” Often there’s a part of us that truly thinks that, if we refuse to accept the necessity of letting go, then a person isn’t really gone. We know it doesn’t make sense. But part of us believes it anyway. | | |
|
| | Thursday, March 5th (PM) Reinforce yourself for trying. Reward every step. It doesn’t have to be huge. You don’t have to pretend that making one step is the equivalent of achieving your goal. But acknowledge your progress. Even your imperfect project. | | |
|
|
| | Friday, March 6th (AM) You’re not invisible, unimportant, or a burden because of your wiring. Be patient and persistent with yourself— every day. | | |
|
| | Friday, March 6th (PM) All addictions are essentially accidents. Nobody realistically thinks it’s going to happen to them if they do this thing . . . | | |
