Everyone seems to be scrambling for money and for human interaction as well as regaining their freedom again. So, on this #TrashItThursday, how about we throw out all the woe is me that seems to be taking over your very being and become aware of our actual reality.
What if, while you have all this time during quarantine, you stopped complaining about the money you do not currently have and instead look inside your attic, your closets, under your bed, your garage and every other nook and cranny around your house and throw everything into a pile that you have not seen or touched in more than a year and start listing them for sale. Everything is free to do. Create accounts on eBay, Poshmark, Mercari, Letgo, Craig’s List, Facebook marketplace and the list goes on. Most of these places only charge you a small fee once you sell the item. There is no excuse for not listing your items. There is no out of pocket expense for you and it will bring in a surprising amount of needed money into your household. .
What if, rather than sulk that you cannot be around your family and friends to get those very much needed hugs, kisses, long conversations, laughter and if you are not quarantined with your partner, some nookie, you start video chatting often? What if you take this time to realize how, before quarantine, you took all these actions for granted? Have you stopped yet to take notice that the things that meant most to you, you took the most advantage of? This quarantine will pass soon but the hands on the clocks of our lives keep ticking away. What if you use this time to finally prioritize your relationships and enjoy all the people you love rather than spending all your time and energy on things you do not need?
What if you make a freedom journal? We have been locked up under this quarantine and all we want to do is get out. What is it that you miss? Is there a special restaurant you want to go to or a salon visit or maybe a walk through a park? Make yourself a freedom journal and really decide what it is you want to do with your precious time? There is a whole world out there, what if you pinpoint places that will enhance your life rather than places that just waste your time?
The world is filled with what if questions. If you are reading this blog post, you need to realize that you are amongst the luckiest people in the world and that is because you opened your eyes this morning, you have access to devices to be able to read this blog post, you have the freedom to actually implement everything in this blog post and you have the wherewithal to be able to make choices for yourself. I sure hope that rather than wondering what if you would have done something before this quarantine, you change your thought process and think thoughts of what if you take this precious time that has been given to you and you decide to choose to enjoy every minute doing that which brings joy to you and being with people whom it is that matters most to you.
Quarantine affords you lots of free time that you should use to read and enhance your minds. I have a wonderful reading choice for today called Living Gratitude. If your local library is not presently an option, here is a link to get your own copy from Amazon >>> https://amzn.to/38xquS6
