Most of us have had the dream, but it can also find a way to manifest itself in life…how can we make it stop?
Did You Put Your Pants on This Morning?
By Deidre Hughey
You remember those dreams, don’t you?
You’re on the school bus, you get to school, stand up and as you’re walking, you realize you forgot to put your pants on that morning! How the heck did that happen? Immediately, you’re mortified, but instead of getting help (I could never figure that part out), you walk through the school without your pants on trying to figure out how to make it through the day without pants.
Now, maybe I’m the only one that’s had this dream (oh, I hope not – mortification is too fun not to share)…but it brings up an interesting point. There are days where we’ve forgotten to do something intrinsically important to our success, but instead of going back to fix it or getting someone to help, we think, well, tomorrow I’ll make sure I get it done. In the meantime, you walk around hoping no one will notice. That’s crazy! What if that thing was not putting your pants on?
I know it’s a silly example, but sometimes, we just need to slow down and turn around to get the really important things done earlier rather than later. But if you’re like me, sometimes it’s just really hard to remember the things that we’re supposed to do.
Here’s a solution you can try:
Use this simple method or find a method that works for you! It will free your mind, alleviate you of stress and help you get through your day without the fear of embarrassment, especially if you really did forget to put your pants on.
So, take it from me, keep your pants on, sell ethically and be happy!
