“MONOTONY”
(I know you’re singing the Fresh Prince song… “…just a little somethin’ to break the monotony…” )
Do you ever get stuck in a rut and do the same things over and over again? I do!!!
There is safety in tradition but I challenge you to try something new on occasion….
Here are just a few options:
-Drive a different route
-Listen to a different genre and generation of music
-Go try new things…look at life from the outside looking in… not the inside looking out
-Eat and drink something different than normal
-Change your routine
-Try being nice to those you don’t like (but love…because we’re supposed to love one another!)
-Sit in a different seat at church, work, or school
-Try a different style of clothes
-Learn a new language
-Hang out with people that aren’t like you
This experiment will challenge you to do a number of things:
-Either appreciate what you usually do more or bring life to newness and newness to your life
-Get out of your rut
-Develop a new zest for life
-Be willing to accept that there is more than one correct way to do things (sometimes)
-Realize that you’re boring (or not)
-Release the robot mentality
-Be unique
Give me some one liner challenges (can be applicable to anyone)……
…….And try a few of them yourselves
