How are your morning gratitude sessions going? Even if you’ve missed some, you can still use the first part of the year to build momentum. But you need to start noticing the relationship between you feeling grateful and you starting your day off that way. Same with judgment. If you stop doing it life instantly feels better. Just pay attention to that relationship and you’ll easily be motivated to continue.
Today we’re going to demonstrate how crazy something like judgment can get. Not only will you judge others unfairly and not only will you replay other people’s judgments of you, but even if you do get a positive judgment–you’ll be so beaten down by your own narratives that you won’t even feel comfortable accepting it. You know you do that. You reject compliments. You should really ask yourself why.
Fill your mind with compliments instead of judgments and you will save your own life. Have a great weekend everyone!
