The brain just wants to be right #2
Recently, I wrote about how the brain just wants to be right.
It doesn’t care what it’s right about,
it just wants to be right.
…
So tell your brain,
what you want it to be right about.
…
If you tell your brain:
I work too much
I work more than I want to
I just have to work these crazy hours
There’s no other way
I just need to suck it up
This is how it is
This is just how it is in accounting
This is what we do in tax season
Tax season is busy
Tax season is stressful
Clients are disorganized
Clients don’t get me their stuff on time
.
.
.
Your brain will find a way to make these things true, because
it just wants to be right.
.
.
.
With the above thoughts, you will:
work too much
work more than you want to
work crazy hours
not find another way
suck it up
continue making it how it is
do it the way it’s done in accounting
do it the way it’s done in tax season
have a busy tax season
have a stressful tax season
have disorganized clients
have clients who don’t get you their stuff on time
…
The brain just wants to be right.
.
.
.
Decide on purpose, what you want it to be right about.
And tell it to go find ways to be right about that.
