Victory before first victory

There’s too much on this lamp’s base. But it’s a holiday season, so, letting it ride for now.

Victory before the first personal victory?

Yes.

Make the first thing you do (after going to the bathroom if needed first) is drop to your knees and pray.

Daily habits and rituals help fend off procrastination.

Keep your habits and rituals simple.

Do less, better.

The easier it is to do, the quicker and stronger the habit sticks.

Habits are the good things we do, and the bad things. Habits are also the good things we don’t do, and the bad things we wish we didn’t.

Habits define everything about you.

Let the first thing be

Let the first thing be, upon awakening, thank you.

So cliche.

Say thank you to start your day.

Up to you.

Proud of you for the way you honor such a simple, initial, daily habit and ritual.

Asterisk moment

Grateful to be able to bend down to ground level.

Asterisk moment.

Mid Life Celebration’s post today made it sound like everyone can make an endless list of things to be grateful for.

You agree with this right?

Emotional judgement

Close to Epcot.

Infinite scrolling from social media has us trained to judge faster.

We move through updates quickly.

Why?

It’s literally the only way to “keep up”.

And we generally judge. You are probably an exception, but most of us make judgements continuously.

Judgement leads to exhaustion.

Stop judging, start recuperating.

Eventually freedom not only pays us a visit, but freedom ends up moving in with us.

But we have to curb social media.

Curb as in probably not partake.

If your goal isn’t impossible, you’re not reaching high enough.

Celebrate everything

Disney Cast Member years of service celebration.

Seems ridiculously simple.

What?

Celebrating everything.

You know, being grateful and all of that.

Please make sure near the top of your list of celebratory things is you.
