Expiration dates. Do you follow them? Do you pay attention to them? Might you follow when it comes to milk, but not when it comes to mascara?
Fearless Fox Friday!
I've been thinking about expiration dates because I've been de-cluttering and organizing my home. So many things have an expiration date. My lovely organizer helps me to let go. I put such value on everything that I've bought that I don't want to let it go even if it's gone bad or is no longer effective. We've thrown away medication, baking powder, and chocolate! Most of the time I don't think about effectiveness or quality of a product. I just think, I have it and I don't want to buy more.
Do we do this with our lives?
This is also a question I have been asking myself. Do I hold on to emotions and feelings longer than needed? Do I keep myself in situations that are spoiled? Do I look at the effectiveness of my thoughts? Do I keep labels way after they are stale and no longer true?
How often do we put a value on the pain or time we have put into something above what is most important? Our dreams, our happiness, our peace, our ability to move forward, these are the things we could be valuing.
What would happen if we all decided to throw it all out? All the expired thoughts, feelings, and excuses. All the self-doubt, judgment, and worry. Who would we be? What could we do?
If you are ready to get cracking, join me! I'm ready. Together we can clean house. We can go through and find all those rotten thoughts, stale judgments, and ineffective feelings. We can let go of the expired stuff holding us back! We can move forward and Hatch!
Let's Hatch and be Rock Stars!
