Reframing is a powerful tool!! You explained what can seem like a difficult task to many in a very simple and actionable way!!! Add this to your tool box
love that! I have a to do list on my phone in the note app and I keep everything that gas been ticked off for a while, just to see that yes, I’ve done a lot more than I thought. You’re right when you say its so easy to focus on how behind we are or feel like we’ve accomplished nothing, but it’s usually far from accurate!
Any way we can incorporate play will reduce the pressure and increase the curiosity, whether it’s a done list or a not to do list or anything else.
It used to feel silly to think of all you have to do and feel behind, and then make the list longer by writing down “shower” and then crossing it off because you just did it.
And it is silly. But not for the reason I thought it was silly. It’s not stupid, it’s not inefficient or lazy or adding work, it’s silly in a fun way. Play isn’t always fun, but any kind of play is better than the best kind of self flagellation or brow beating.
How you doing my name is Eldridge Brown and I would like to share a little something with you when I was 9 years of age my mother was rape and she had her skull bashed in by the Oakland rapist back then that was a serial rapist in Oakland California he followed her from the hospital he attacked her at the bus stop Forester into his van and raped her for 4 days he dumped her in the alley my mom was found two weeks later when we finally found my mom she was in the hospital as Jane Doe me being a young child didn't really know what to think my mother is my hero she's my dad and my mom at the same time my dad he's a coward he ran from responsibility my mom works hard two jobs Plus she was a deacon at the church my mom loved us eight kids and we had everything that's rare with a single parent I believe in uplifting women I believe women are equal also believe a woman can do anything a man can do I actually was part of a demonstration in San Bernardino to help women receive the same pay as men I often pray to God that he blessed me with a woman to love me and to marry me one day and make me happy and I make her happy I try to do the best I can to pay it forward I try to be a good person the way my mom taught me I give blood to a little boy twice a week so that he can have a normal life I don't even know this kid when the opportunity came up and raise my hand and I just jumped in on my own terms I get paid every Wednesday and I go and help one of the homeless people and wanted a homeless encampments this is every week I just do it from the bottom of my heart Jesus Christ died on the cross for me so I'm going to do the best that I can to be christ-like I took up enough of your time but I just wanted to say I am in love with love that's why I write the way I write I'm still learning though when people like you and all the others that's on this platform I thank you all and I humble myself and I'm grateful for every comment that I get from all of you you have a good day and God bless

Yes! I do the same - it helps me reframe my mindset to remember all that I DID do; so glad it’s working for you ☺️🤍
Need to give this a go!! Thank you 🩵
Definitely recommend!!!
I love this idea and am definitely going to try it out! Thank you :)
I hope you find it helpful/ a good mindset reframe 🤍
sorry if this is a repeat, but have you ever tried a "not to do" list? so fun!
I haven't, but I absolutely love this idea... trying it next week!

This is SO SMART and the psychology makes total sense. Wow, thanks for sharing.
Right?! The bit about adding a "why" to each item felt really transformative. glad it resonated with you, too <3
Yes! I love that.
This is brilliant, Delaney! I absolutely have to try this.
i highly recommend it! i've been doing it every night, and it's totally changed by mindset going into sleep and the following day <3
So she thought.
Love this Delane
