it's amazing how words can affect how you feel. everyone is different,but there are certain words that affect many people in a similar way.

how does SHOULD make you feel?
for me,yuck. icky.

i'm not sure who recommended this,but it was suggested that if you want to motivate yourself,you are less resistant to the word 'could' than 'should'. and of course resistance makes you feel crummy.

when i remember, i play with this. it makes me laugh. gee,i could vacuum the living room. sure why not? but i hate having anyone,including myself,tell me i should do anything.

in fact,using the word 'could' tends to invoke inspiration,which feels much nicer than getting yourself motivated. (i picture myself being dragged kicking and screaming...motivated,my a**)

it's amazing what a difference some little things can make.

hmmm. well,i could go wash my dishes now...

sure,why not?

bye for now!
