Hi
Each morning, you start your day with 17 damns.
It's up to you how you use them.
Damn that alarm clock [1]
Damn the traffic this morning [2]
Damn - does that phone ever stop pinging? [3]
Damn the amount of emails – it’s getting worse [4]
Oh damn… going to be late [5]
Damn, meeting with Gary. That’ll be dull [6]
All damns don’t have to be negative though. You could give a damn about…
Alan, he’s been down a bit lately [7]
I give a damn about the quality of this work [8]
Sue could do with that report early. Let’s help her out [9]
Send my partner a quick Love YOU text [10]
Damn, forgot to top up the meter - £30 fine! [11]
‘Hi mum. No, all good. Just ringing to say hi’ [12]
Right kids, tell me about your day? [13]
Just need to watch the news. ‘Damn Trump!’ [14]
Have you seen the weather? Damn, that’s this weekend written off [15]
Shoot - still need to do those last couple of emails. Damn my boss [16]
One left. Positive or negative? Give a damn? Or state a damn?
There's more of a science to this than you think. Choosing where you focus your attention, especially with things that you give a damn about, is finite. Positive or negative.
You start the day with so many damns and you can use them up any way you like.
Some people have them all used up with unhelpful emotions and reactions by lunchtime.
Others choose them carefully. Direct and focus them.
So, by the time they go to bed they still have a couple of damns left to give thanks.
Thanks for their damn fine life.
Let's have a damn good Saturday
