Everytime this self-care account I follow suggests "cook yourself a meal" I recoil almost physically. That is the thing that, if I am ever forced to do it, I need all the self care forever to recover from it.
A lot of times when I talk about happiness to others it's as though we're speaking different languages, because so many people think of happiness as a mood, a transient reaction to a certain stimulus, instead of a default state.
Of course bad stuff makes us react badly, and good stuff makes us react with cheer. But when that passes, what's underneath it? What do you default to? And why?
I've got a question for you! ONLY REPLY if it's okay for me to use your answer in an EXCLUSIVE video series I'm creating on PeerTube.
Here's your question...
There's been a lot of talk in my timelines about streaming services charging more for not having commercials and a lot of people are thinning out what they subscribe to.
❓What are your TOP THREE STREAMING SERVICES??? Which ones are your favorite and why?❓
Thanks for participating and PLEASE BOOST for visibility! 😀
@mishellbaker I love Linux - been using it since the early development days. I have it installed in a VM on my Windows laptop 😍 Feel free to ping me if you have any questions
Every time you find yourself saying out loud or thinking to yourself, "I hate X," instead figure out its opposite, Y, and say "I love Y" instead.
In the traffic jam, say, "I love driving freely." When you're buried under busywork, say, "I love meaningful tasks." When your boss is a jerk to you, say, "I love compassionate people."
Sometimes it's easier to find your way out of a pit if you focus less on the pit and more on where the ladder is.
@mishellbaker I learned quite a while back that the words we use define how we think. I never applied that in the way you suggested. This is great advice, thank you
