1085: Let's give future us a break
We’re kicking off the week with some compassionate strategy, and giving future us a well-earned break!
Episode transcript:
Good morning, Daily Peppers, and a very happy Monday to you. I wanna kick off this week with a reminder that you don't have to solve everything this week. I think every week we get to Sunday or we get to Friday, and we pin so many hopes on our future self. It can be comforting to do that in the moment because it means present us doesn't have to deal with us. But it can often mean that future us, e. G. Monday us right now, feels a bit burdened and put upon. So if you're feeling like that, I really invite you to look at everything you need to do this week and actually see if you need to do it.
And, also, see if you can put in place some kind things for Tuesday you, Wednesday you, Thursday you, or Friday you. For many of us, our automatic response to our future selves is just to give her more work, is to give her more shit to do and more shit to think about. But I'm pretty damn sure that future you is gonna be grateful if you've planned something that they can actually enjoy, and there's not just one more thing to do. So that is some food for thought as you go about planning your week. Remember that you don't have to get it all done, that if it feels like a bare minimum week or a maintenance week, then by all means, just do what you have to do and do the bare minimum. And if you have woken up feeling full of beans, make sure you plan some rest time too. So happy Monday my dears. I hope this week provides you with lots of unexpected joy.
Treat yourself how you would treat a dear friend. And remember as always that everything changes when you believe you matter.
