Make Your Damn Bed

Decentering yourself from conversations will take practice, especially if it’s an unconscious habit. There is nothing wrong with you if you do this, but it is something to be aware of in your conversations. Start to recognize your patterns and practice grounding exercises to better manage your impulses in your responses. If you have an uncomfortable feeling or emotion come up, allow it to flow through you and observe it, but don’t deflect. With practice this will become second nature.

Make Your Damn Bed is a real talk, daily motivation podcast to play while you make your bed* every morning. Each season is 66 days long to incorporate new healthy habits of your choosing into your daily life.

Every aspect of you is being tracked, sold, and analyzed but there are things you can do to help reduce that impact.

This doesn’t mean you have to quit social media and internet scrolling cold turkey and this doesn’t mean all internet usage is inherently bad - it just means it’s built to be addicting and if we’re not cognizant of how that is affecting our brains, we can easily get sucked into the traps they have set up for us.

Sorry this one is so long - I got into it. Maybe this is the day you make your bed AND floss your teeth!?

Remember that google isn’t always a reliable resource and people skew false data all the time to fit their agenda so learn to really discern between authentic scientific research and false claims. You’re smart and capable but you’re fallible too - and the sooner you recognize that - the sooner the world can begin to heal from this toxic pride that comes from being considered ‘right’ even when they’re wrong. Widen your communication network, be open to multiple sources on a topic, and remember that the truth is out there - even if you have to do a little digging to get to it.

Working hard is bullshit. The hardest jobs I have ever had were the worst paying jobs. The highest paying jobs expect the least from me. I have experienced a difference in respect and expectations as I have moved up the proverbial ladder of American labor hierarchy. It’s bullshit. You can’t ever work your way to a billion dollars.

There is this constant expectation that everyone should hustle. Some people genuinely believe that if you don’t work hard, you don’t deserve to survive. Not only is this problematic as all hell, it’s also demonstrably false.

Remember that money is energy and you can create that energy without letting that energy convert yours. The more you can stay on top of it, the less burdensome the whole thing can become. We all deserve to get away from the debt America seems to believe we owe it. If you’re not in a position to do that yet - go easy on yourself and you being in debt was the whole point In the meantime, we should go easy on ourselves and remember the game was rigged.

CONTENT WARNING: mention of white supremacy and racism //

The revolution is upon us. We are all awaiting some grand announcement - but it isn’t coming. The revolution is here. A lot of us are waiting patiently for the boogieman to show up but the boogie man is already here. The boogieman haunts every part of American society. He’s in our spending habits, our phone addictions, our dead end jobs, our toxic relationships, and our relationships with ourselves. The good thing is? The power is in the people.

It’s not about taking things away and making life worse for those with privilege - it’s about finding improvements and making life better for those without. There is and always has been enough pie for everyone. If you have an extra fork, share it! Plus, the idea of getting fat off a pie that others aren’t even welcome to - sounds disgusting to me anyway. Instead of fighting your neighbors for the crumbs, figure out who took the fucking pie.

As you get comfortable asking for everything you want you will get comfortable hearing the word no. Eventually you can get more confident and creative and start noticing what you can ask for that can help the world around you - that open land in the neighborhood may be a community garden project waiting to happen or the local restaurants may need somewhere to donate their leftover baked goods at the end of the evenings.
