Chores

Today is trash day! It seems like life is a never ending to-do list of stuff to cross off the list: laundry, empty the dishwasher, pay bills, and, of course, take the trash out. But here’s a different perspective on chores.

There are people who would love to be physically able to do the mundane stuff we complain about. Either they haven’t taken good enough care of themselves or they are disabled, but whatever the reason they just can’t make it through. What we take for granted, they cherish.

My encouragement to you is to look forward to taking out the trash. Or emptying the dishwasher. Or doing laundry. Or walking to the mailbox. Turn the things you dread into celebrations. Yes, I said it. Look forward to the boring, mundane but necessary to-do list. Focus on how good you feel after crossing something off your list.

It’s all attitude…
