Turn your buts into ands - Change your world

in #productivity5 years ago (edited)

Hey there Steemians!

Here is a trick my wife and I use to greatly increase our productivity, creativity and level of contentment!

It's pretty simple really. We merely hold each other accountable for our "buts."

How's that you ask? So if I said, "I have (insert task) to do, but...... (what ever that looming excuse might be)." She'd just reply with a hearty, "AND!"

So now my statement becomes, "I have this to do AND, have this obstacle!"

I have now revealed that which is blocking me from doing that task and can work to clear what is blocking me.

Try it! You'll soon see how much easier life becomes!
