This Is Why You Need A Sense Of Humor
I’m scared I got behind.
That everyone’s now ahead of me and I’m, “way back here someplace.”
I actually thought about leaving my paradise vacation because it’s going to be too hard to catch up.
(Okay, only for a second.)
Then I realized:
There’s no race! Catch up to what?
It’s all in my mind.
Seriously. My podcast’s out, my work’s caught up, and the fact I’m not posting on LinkedIn, socials, or here on Medium for a couple of weeks isn’t going to put me in “last” of anything.
That’s reality. Not that I’m getting “behind.”
Luckily I have a sense of humor and crack myself up with these thoughts.
Otherwise, I could drive myself crazy.
Meditation helps.
It’s the solution to the monkey mind.
It allows me to “see” how ridiculous or not based in reality these thoughts are.
This allows me to laugh at myself and when I laugh, endorphins release, and now I’m happy. 😊
Which is exactly how I want to feel on vacation or when I’m home reflecting on what a fabulous time we enjoyed while in paradise.
What do you do when your head’s absurd?
