Scream

Sometimes it’s good to just let out a huge scream.

Shout from the top of our heads.

OK, not good to do it on a train, for example, perhaps better in the middle of a field.

We live our lives with so many restrictions.

The restrictions we self-impose, after all, we set the rules for our lives.

If you feel stuck, restricted, then let out a scream and then re-write the rules, take off the shackles and live the life you want.

Give yourself permission to do whatever you want.

As a caveat, whatever we choose always has a consequence. But give yourself the freedom to choose.

Then you’ll find the urge to scream diminishes.

Small stuff

Why do we sweat about the small stuff and then things that really matter often get forgotten?

I am not sure I know the answer…

Perhaps, the stuff that matters is scary, requires us to be vulnerable, to come out of our comfort zones, it requires us to be brave. So, we distract ourselves with small ‘fry’ stuff.

Frustration comes through and that is often why I find myself getting annoyed with others sometimes about trivia. It is a frustration with myself caused by shying away from stuff that really matters and so I take it out on others.

The solution…again, I am not sure I know entirely, other than, let the small stuff go, get braver about the stuff that will matter to you at the end of the journey.

For me it is about less is more, but when you let the trivia go and focus on stuff that counts, then there is no more hiding place and that is scary.
