Thoughts, man.
Just a whole mess of thoughts. I'm not the best person to be thinking because I have a horrible habit of overthinking. And I've been really working on that. Really. Working on stopping that habit. Meanwhile, thoughts.
I follow a few high performance life coaches. Mainly, Brendon Burchard. Via email, a few others. James Clear. Patrick Edblad; who I began following after I began using coach dot com in 2016. Patrick Edblad has been awesome. He does this wonderful "daily reading" email that I adore. Its made a big different in my life. It plays towards the importance of reading - and reading IS fucking important. Focus, concentration, imagination; intellectual curiosity, all important in our development as human beings. He presents the material in little tidbits. That way, you decide which is important to delve deeper.
One thing he mentioned was a "list 40 things you love about yourself". That stumped me. He dived in and made his list that he shared. Me? Stumped. FOURTY? I could barely think of five. THIS, I'm thinking, is a problem.
Excuse the rambling that's following.
If I were to ever write a book on my life, I would spend chapters on the issues that my mother passed on to me. This inability to like anything about myself is one of those issues. Its not gone unnoticed by me. Trust me on this. I've known for years about this....shit. And I don't want to spend time on this part of my life right now. Here. On the internet.
So....I'm aware. And I've been dealing. With how I can. By doing what I like to do. Its all therapeutic, after all. And with a couple of glasses of Agavero, I whipped out twenty things I love about myself. I'm not writing out this list now, though. I'll do that in the morning. Which will be a bit later. I need to sit down and draw for a bit. And train.
And watch a movie.
Enjoy your own evening, whoever is reading this. Good night!
