Howdy Son,
How are things going there today? I trust that all is well in your world and if for some reason it’s not, you can always reach out to me for help.
This week is starting off wonderfully as most weeks do. There’s always much to be accomplished and I am Looking forward to every bit of it!
So, you may say to yourself, “Dad, it sounds like you look forward to every task.” I wish that I could say that were true. I would love to be able to look forward to every task, but like everyone else, I can tend to favor some tasks over others.
I have found a way that helps to tackle those tasks which we may deem as “unnecessarily tedious.” I reframed my thinking from, “I HAVE to do this task” to “I GET to do this task.”
When I tell myself that I get to do a task, that means that I am blessed with the mental and physical capacity to perform the task.
Let’s shed some light on what was just said. Would you rather be able to vacuum the carpet or not be able to vacuum the carpet? Now I’m not saying that vacuuming the carpet is fun. Truthfully, it’s not really supposed to be fun, but it is necessary. I am saying all that to say that there are people with mental and physical limitations who are not able to perform all the things we are able to do. We should be thankful that we are blessed with the ability to perform tasks and do things that, unfortunately, others may not be able to do.
Well, that’s all for now!
Have an amazing day and know that you are in my thoughts and prayers!
Love,
Dad
