Show Notes


Our minds put things into buckets – categorize things – as “right” and “wrong.” Where the things that look good, feel comfortable, are easy, and pleasurable are, of course, the “right” things.

And the things that are out of the ordinary, cause us to do extra work, aren’t as we would have them be are the “wrong” things.

And our brains do this constantly. Constantly scan our environments and label the things in them. And those “wrong” things can, without our even noticing, become hyper-focal points for us. We notice them and keep noticing them, and spin on them, and become increasingly aware of and often bothered by them.

Which is NOT very fun!

Interrupt brain… As directly as if it was under your authority – because, by the way, IT IS – and quite literally saying, “Stop. Focus on everything that is good about this situation…” It will generate a different type of fuel and it will ignite a better “mood” than the alternative focus. This Works!
