Weekend Experiences

Bad Habits | Good Music

wwJJ02_s (2).jpeg

I was asked a few days ago about bad habits and specifically which bad habits I thought were very damaging but easily rectified...with ownership and discipline. You'll find them below and and a little below them is some music I like and figured I'd share.

Waking up late: This steals time away from people and nurtures laziness. Get the fuck up and go live life, you don't get a second chance at it.
Focus on things that cannot be controlled: Seriously? Expend energy on those things that are within your ability to affect and let the uncontrollable things go.
Associating with the wrong people: Fly with the eagles, don't stay on the ground with the turkeys, the turkeys have nothing to offer you.
Inability to say no: Your life is yours, own it and say no to those who want to waste it with their fuckassery, you deserve better.
Failing to understand you'll die: Ignoring this can lead to complacency so realise it, acknowledge it then move on with life rather than floating through life oblivious to the fact it's passing you by.

Learning to say no is very important. If you don't set boundaries, the number of commitments you take on, simply because you don't know how to say no, will be overwhelming and stressful. For several months, I took on a lot of responsibilities because I felt bad saying no to those who came to me for help. When I analyzed the situation, I decided it was time to set boundaries and prioritize. Learning to say no has freed me from taking on non-priority responsibilities, allowing me to invest my time in productive activities.

Greetings!

Man, your posts have been hitting me hard lately. I'm good about almost never waking up late, but I still use the snooze on some mornings. Jocko would NOT approve!

The other four...those are a constant challenge. You can be good one day and slip up the next. Your mind has to be constantly disciplined to avoid those bad patterns of thinking (and acting).

The last 5 years or so, after reading "Hell Yeah or No" by Derek Sivers, I've learned to say "No" a lot more and it has improved my life and mental health in so many ways.

Hardy is an interesting musical artist.

Wait in the Truck moved me to chills snd anger

I have been there done that. Several different times. They did not pull the trigger. And the girls went back to the abusive relationships... SMFH

That last one is hard, I don't think it is natural to realize that I will die, I tend to feel like I will live forever. Though I do understand that in reality I have something like twenty to forty years left if nothing goes wrong...

Good stuff! My wife has yet to learn how to say no and people at work take advantage of it big time. It drives me crazy! Old Dominion is one of my favorites! I heard they have a new album coming out soon.

Sometimes on weekends I treat myself to a longer sleep. Until 7AM 😂 And that's the best moment of the day, while it's not crowded, the whole city is asleep and quiet. For a walk, perfect time.

Among the bad habits mentioned, I do not approve of waking up late. If we sleep early and wake up early, we can get more use out of our time. If we can get more time in the morning, we can get more work done because we have energy in the morning. Sleeping late is not productive. Spending too much time with the wrong people wastes time and money. That time that has passed cannot be taken back. The company of the wrong people takes us to the bottom of the pit. It takes a long time to get back up.

If you only knew how much the second point cost me in the past... I used to get upset about things I couldn't do anything about, then I realised it was a waste of valuable time. It took me a lot to change that point, but I did it. And the third... my brother always tells me that. Lately, I've been making changes like that, leaving behind people who were only holding me back from my goal and surrounding myself with people who inspire me.

I don't usually listen to that kind of music, but... I really liked the last one, it's great! 😃Thank you!

Very true and positive points you have listed above. The 5 points you listed above is very important if a person wants to progress in life.

Great 👍 points @galenkp

Completely off topic - need to put a hive t-shirt on that sculpture with a QR code.
@ellizy(61)· 347d
All your points are valid, but I may wake up late if I slept late due to work. Body needs rest you know but not turning that into an habit. That, I believe is very bad.
@davideownzall(74)· 347d
Oh man I bloody hate waking up late, like there's people waking up at 10-10,30 that's like the whole morning wasted... I can understand if you went sleep late like at 2-3 am because you have done something, but if you go at a normal sleep time... I set an alarm to wake up at most at 8,00 am

The point 3 applies since teenage time tbh

I would add waste time in useless stuff, like stay 1 hour in the bathroom because you are scrolling Facebook...

I like zac brown the most, suits good for Saturday
