I told my husband I was going to throw my phone into the ocean business-man-style and he genuinely had no idea what I was talking about. âYou know, when a business man finally understands the value of family and chucks his phone into the water?â
*crickets* Please tell me I âm not the only person on this earth who knows that when a business person has a realization related to NOT putting work first, he (or she) is obligated to immediately waterlog their deviceâŚ
Fr fr I never knew how many people are tethered to their devices while doing their business until BeReal shed light on this epidemic. If this is you maybe consider a lil break while youâre in there đ
You, yes you. Put down your phone. Remove all electronics from your person and exist for a moment. Sing a song. Or jump up and down. Scream. Or go outside and take a deep breath. Pet the damn dog. Feel connected to humanity by disconnecting. The skin where you wear your Apple Watch needs some sun so go outside and get some. Donât track that workout this time; donât worry it still counts even if you donât close your rings. Yes this post is advice for myself as much as it is for others.
You donât need to suffer to prove that youâre a good person. You donât have to stay with the job that makes you question yourself and you donât have to keep dating that person youâre not quite clicking with. If something feels off then it probably is. Iâm not advocating for immediately abandoning your responsibilities and throwing caution to the wind; but in our hearts we know when something is working and when it isnât. That thing called intuition is your soul, and you can trust it.
If youâre unsure what something means, like, learn! Aquire full context of what words mean, because then you can improve your vocabulary, and know more! Knowledge is power!!
