Do something you've never done before.

Yep, that's it - just do something you've never done before.

1 - Tell us what it was

2 - Explain any feelings it might have generated

3 - How hard was it for you to come up with something?

This is an exercise I came up with a few years ago to help those I mentor get "unstuck".

I've seen overall positive results.

It surprised me how difficult some of them found this exercise to be, but I suppose shouldn't have, lol.

You have to keep at it, and some interesting revelations can rise to the surface 😉

Happy Friday peeps 🍻🌹

FoxWolf Byte{🤍} - (1) - Go Dark by choice from family.
(2) - Extreme anxiety, feeling that I was a bad person / pup because I was 'hurting' someone. However I didn't put that towards myself before that point because 'I shouldn't cause harm'. But after being nudged to do so by a caring person, I realized that I was experiencing and letting myself continue to experience a short of mental 'short circuit'. Where my own self checks and precautions ran AFTER the pre-checks run against the other people. I was so focused on being a good person for someone else that I wasn't seeing if I was being a good person for _myself_.
(3) - It was sorta dumped on me but the next steps are to continue going dark with the family members and rewire some of those cognitive distortions and short circuits.
