Watch Yourself

This is a refresher/reset exercise that you might enjoy on one of those days when you’re feeling stuck in ordinariness.

Imagine yourself as a commentator. The way commentating is done at performances and sports events, only you are the focus. You are watching every small, ordinary thing you do. Injecting excitement and admiration in the commentary you give yourself. Use the third person when you do this because you are watching you, not being you. Be generous with your approval.

Keep going until you feel that shift and ordinary, the way you do it, becomes extraordinary.

  1. Oh gosh, Maureen. Some mornings I find myself saying 'dang it, Johnson, you make good coffee'. Now I am so going to take your idea even farther from my first cup of coffee. Thanks for the reminder to get out of my own way!
