Comfort Or Fuel For Our Money?
Comfort Or Fuel For Our Money?
We work hard to do a good job, hoping all the while someone will recognize our efforts, which will lead to increased pay.
To do an excellent job, we skip meals because we can get more work done if we don’t leave our desk.
We snack on sugar-filled foods because they are easy to unwrap, don’t require refrigeration, nor heating, and they taste oh so good.
We stay late to get more work done, often missing dinner time.
When we arrive home late, sugar-laden food choices like cookies, cake, and ice cream are easy to prepare, readily available, taste great, calm our nerves, and cleanup is minimal.
Perfect.
Right?
Our other option is to use intentional, balanced, highly nutritious food choices.
Nah.
Too much effort, cost, and planning.

Only one was influenced by intentional, personal choice. Pretty scary to realize so much of life is out of our control.

On April Fool’s Day 2009, jeff noel began writing five daily, differently-themed blogs (on five different sites). It was to be a 100-day self-imposed “writer’s bootcamp”, in preparation for writing his first book. He hasn’t missed a single day since.
This is learned behavior
The worker recently said, “I just do what I’m told.”
Safe.
No harm, no foul.
We spend a lot of time working.
Pick your attitude about what you want to accept because you’ll be living with it for (potentially) decades.
Using good judgment and taking initiative are far more important than just doing what you’re told.
