Just Do It!
One of my favourite little sayings, especially when it comes to getting things done around the house.
I think about what needs to be done and then I sense all the excuses rising in my head and I say to myself, "Just do it!"
You see I already know how bad I am going to feel if I don't do it and how good I will feel if I do. I just try to remind myself of that fact.
So rather than waste time and energy putting off something that you know you will have to do eventually why not Just Do It!
Act As If...
Another of my favourite little sayings, especially when I'm feeling a little vulnerable.
In order to get by until I am feeling strong again I tell myself, "Act as if... Act as if you are in control until you are. Act as if you know what you want until you do." Fake it till you make it!
Just do it until you can do it without beating yourself up all the time.
Moans and groans and excuses do become a habit. We know that just getting stuff done is what will make us feel good. Right? So why do we make so much work for ourselves?
Next time you are confronted with any difficult situation simply remind yourself of how good you will feel when everything is done and dusted.
Take Time To Smell The Roses.
Take time to smell the roses, the coffee, the fresh cut grass, the real leather, a fine wine... Whatever rocks your boat! Play the 'When I grow up I want to be..' game with your partner. Or the 'If I were rich...' game. Or 'If I had three wishes...'. It's fun. Dream big dreams - in colour! No matter your age there's always time for some fun!
Got anything you might like to pass on?
