Everyday Happiness - Finding Harmony and Bliss
Education:Self-Improvement
When we are looking at our to-do lists, I encourage you to put the word "get" in front of each task and see how it changes your mindset. Tune in to this podcast episode to learn more!
Transcript:
Welcome to Everyday Happiness where we create lasting happiness, in about 2 minutes a day, through my signature method of Intentional Margins® (creating harmony between your to-dos and your priorities), happiness science, and musings about life.
I'm your host Katie Jefcoat and I’m curious, have you heard of this concept, the “get” todo list. It’s a todo list, but instead of the list of all the things you have to do, you put the word “get” in front of todo and you reframe your mindset.
For example, go to the dentist might be on the todo list. You “get” to go to the dentist, because you have access to healthcare while that’s not true for everybody.
Perhaps something on my list might be to record episodes of Everyday Happiness. I “get” to record episodes of Everyday Happiness, something that I have worked hard to curate and produce. I am grateful for listeners and subscribers who allow me the opportunity to continue to share in this format - which is a dream for so many people, and I get to do it.
I have to pick up my kids and drive them around all afternoon to all of their activities. Yeah, isn’t it great that I have healthy kids that I get to pick up from school.
It’s getting this to the macro level, zoom out a little to find the opportunity in this - the blessings - the gratitude. I get to be a mom, I get to host a podcast, I get to go to the dentist.
So, really, we’re feeling overwhelmed by all of the things that we have on our todo list and maybe, they are all good things. I invite you to flip your focus and see what happens for yourself.
I’m curious, what do you think of this “get” todo list? Have you ever thought about it this way?
