Yesterday I realized a good journaling prompt for me would be “What have I already decided?” After reading this, I could reframe as “What am I committed to or what are my commitments?” Writing them out from time to time to see what I’ve bound myself to, and the reasons why, can be useful. There is a podcast I listen to who talks a lot about “liking your reasons” which resonated for me when you wrote that if we break commitments, we should (basically) like our reasons for doing so…
So, if I commit to not eating sugar this week. Then I want eat a candy bar “because I’m tired” this framework helps me see it’s not worth it. 😆
