WEEKLY RECAP March 24th - 30th 2018 |
|
|
Highlights from the Blog and Facebook |
|
|
| | Saturday, March 24th (AM) Are you going to let people who don’t believe in you, who don’t value your goals, who don’t align with your values, determine how you feel? Are you going to let them determine what you do? | | |
|
| | Saturday, March 24th (PM) What’s made you feel good in the last day? A little thing. Not something that changed your life or rocked your world. Just a thing that made you smile, that injected some feel good into your day. | | |
|
|
| | Sunday, March 25th (AM) Take what's useful. From books; from therapists; from this page; from spiritual traditions. Be ravenous, ruthless about it. You're going to find useful nuggets all over the place, often from unexpected sources. | | |
|
| | Sunday, March 25th (PM) Sometimes our friends, our families, people we care very deeply about...are just too much drama. Take a break when you need to. There's no shame in needing some space from drama. | | |
|
|
| | Monday, March 26th (AM) Easy does it. Breathe. We get sucked into thinking either we can’t, or don’t deserve to, take a second and process... | | |
|
| | Monday, March 26th (PM) Maybe you're more complicated than average. Screw it. Be complicated. You are as complicated as you are. | | |
|
|
| | Tuesday, March 27th (Blog) "The internet, the real world, and fire." We need to remember that the Internet has effects on the human brain that are not unlike drugs of addiction. | | |
|
| | Tuesday, March 27th (PM) It's simply not going to work to trash yourself in your own mind, again and again and again, if you want to succeed. It's simply not going to work to trash yourself in your own words, again and again and again, if you want to succeed. | | |
|
|
| | Wednesday, March 28th (AM) There's a difference between your problems INFORMING your identity and BECOMING your identity. Unfortunately, a lot of people have never been taught that their problem can SHAPE who they are, what they value, what they do, what goals they find meaningful ...without CONSUMING who they are. | | |
|
| | Wednesday, March 28th (PM) Keep your cool and remember where you are right now. I know, I know. It's frustrating. You've had to keep your cool a lot, and it hasn't been right. But blowing up bridges right now isn't going to help anyone. Breathe. In for five seconds, hold for three, out for five seconds. Again. | | |
|
|
| | Thursday, March 29th (Blog): “There's no such thing as perfection. Deal with it.” There is no shame in being imperfect. Illogical, impetuous, emotional, needy. All humans are all of these at some point... | | |
|
| | Thursday, March 29th (PM) You can be both positive and realistic. It's not an either/or choice. "Realistic" refers to the extent to which we are committed to seeing reality exactly as it is-not denying or disowning any aspect of reality just because it makes us uncomfortable. | | |
|
|
| | Friday, March 30th (AM) Many people misunderstand what a "right" is. A "right" isn't something that's GIVEN to you by a government or authority. It's not "permission" or a "privilege." A "right" is something that cannot be taken away from you... | | |
|
| | Friday, March 30th (PM) What are you no longer willing to tolerate in your life? You've been putting up with things you shouldn't. You've been pressured to keep quiet about it. You've been made to feel guilty for even THINKING about NOT putting up with it. | | |
