We all have a little more time to think during this time. Might as well take some time to see how we can make some positive changes in our life and really discover what matters most to us. Time like these really put in perspective how short and precious life really is.
“Determination is habit forming; so is quitting.” – Frank Sonnenberg
Think I’ll just quit…
Think I’ll just sit…
Think I’ll just dream on…
Think I’ll just move on…
Think I’ll think no more…
Think I’ll do some more…
Do what I need to do to prove to you that I can.
So I quit…
I have made the decision to quit.
Quit saying this but doing that…
Quit stopping this and starting that…
Quit dreaming but not doing…
Quit thinking but not saying…
Quit putting off until tomorrow…
Quit waiting for ducks in a row…
Quit waiting for the stars to align…
Quit waiting for the perfect sign…
So I simply quit.
Quit quitting.
Although…
Maybe I should keep on quitting certain things.
Quit doing the things that are destructive.
Quit quitting the things that are constructive.
Pretty obvious, right? Of course it is. Then why do I quit doing it?
Like water, I seem to choose the path of least resistance. It’s hard work to do the right thing. It’s hard to get better at whatever. It takes work, effort, determination…
So, I often just quit.
The more I quit, the easier it is to keep on quitting. It becomes a habit and I become a quitter. But what if I change that thinking? Put a positive spin on it? I don’t mean rationalize, justify, or manipulate. I mean quit the stinking thinking?
Quit the negativity…
Quit listening to the self limiting thoughts…
Quit acting on the negativity…
Start listening to the positive thoughts. I know, sometimes you have to listen real hard for those. Listen past the bad chatter and…
Start doing the right thing one day at a time, one act at a time and over time I stop being a quitter (in the negative sense that is) and…
I start becoming a doer. I form a new habit. The habit of doing what is good for me. The habit of not doing what is bad for me and…
I eventually I see, I am now thinking of what is good for me.
So, I quit quitting. I start doing because the worst thing is to do nothing at all.
