What do you talk about?
You've heard the cliche if you haven't got something nice to
say don't say anything at all. I find
that this has some pretty serious implications as to how you feel about your life as a whole. What you are talking about is more than likely what you are thinking
about. And if what you are thinking
about can't be fixed by having a conversation that can help reframe the
situation or solve the problem then what is the point in having the
conversation?
For example I began working for a tax attorney during the height of
tax season. So what was consuming my every thought: taxes! But talking about them did not change the fact
that they needed to get done or the amount of the workload or how fatigued I felt. So I chose to have discussions that centered around OTHER things:
An upcoming event I was looking forward to
A great movie I recently saw
A new art project I am working on
ACTION MOMENT:
Is there something that you are talking about right now that ultimately causes more stress about the situation you are in rather than helps to create a new perspective?
