Rip up your bucket list

What do you want to do with your life? What do you want your legacy to be? I mean, when you’re on your death bed you don’t want to think, “maybe I shouldn’t have watched so much Netflix” do you? Of course not! You want to get out there and do stuff! Give the world a run for its money while you’re still around.

We all want to do something real with our lives. We want to have experiences and make connections and find meaning. We hear things like “live every day like it’s your last” and that inspires us, because we know that overall, we’re hardly even living. It’s depressing.

Now, if you’re interested in hearing an argument for or my journey with gratitude, you can click here and here respectively. But today I’m going to take a little bit different of an approach. Because gratitude, like anything else, is an imperfect practice. And it has its’ limitations.

How bad habits are made: my two cents

Here on the Thoughts that Bind, we take a healthy consideration towards habits. We want to break our bad habits, build better habits, and all that comes with any of that. And there’s one thing a lot of us don’t take into account when we’re trying to better ourselves, which is how bad habits form in the first place.

When life is easy, enjoy. When it’s not, go with it.

Hi everyone, and welcome back to the Thoughts that Bind. You may be looking at the title of this post and think it’s incredibly simple. And I agree with you, the concept is simple. But actually putting it into practice is incredibly difficult for many of us. So let’s take a trip down memory lane.
