I’m +1: I Want To Share This Powerful Habit I Have Cultivated Of Late In My Life…..

The time you were a child. Your parents pretty much run your life. They decide what name to give you, which school to place you in, which after-school programs to attend, and even approve or decline your requests.

When you are moving out of adolescence into your early youthful days, your peers have so much gravitas over you. They mostly impact your dating life, your choice of social events, your speech, your avenues of education, and even how you react to situations.

As you move towards adulthood, this is the time you should question everything and anything that unfolds as an opportunity your way. You should do this by asking a question that ends with “for me” or “to me”. Cultivating this practice can help you alleviate bad decisions, problems, drama, and unhealthy situations in your life.

Here are a couple of examples:
1. Everybody speaks about how amazing a friend this person is. However, will they be a good friend to me?
2. It looks like a lucrative office. The employees are well paid and seem to love their jobs. Is that a good working environment for me?
3. People say that they are nice, and whoever marries them has found a diamond. Are they going to be an amazing romantic partner to me?
4. My friends are advising me to join the college club. Long-term, will it be good for me?
5. All my community members are getting tickets for the town show. The big question is whether it is a place I am supposed to be?
As you grow into maturity and age, learn to question anything that comes across as an opportunity. This might save you from a lot of messy situations. Do you know what leads to depression? It is when you make bad decisions based on the influence of others.
