Those are the components of being able to climb up a ladder one-handed, with shingles in your hand on a-degree day, you know, in the middle of summer, and be actually excited about it. And what really this is all about is giving yourself time, being patient and having an underlying intention.
Ever thought a roofing project could teach you about life? In this episode of 'Stop Drinking and Start Living', Mary Wagstaff shares a personal story that turns a mundane task into a profound lesson in mindfulness and self-discovery. While working on a roofing project with her family, Mary found herself questioning her own objections and beliefs. She realized that our thoughts are merely suggestions, and not all of them are useful or even true.
This revelation, she explains, is much like the journey of changing one's relationship with alcohol. Mary dives into how mindfulness isn't a one-time fix but a muscle you build over time. She stresses the importance of questioning your objections, appreciating different perspectives, and letting go of unrealistic expectations. The episode also highlights how generosity and getting comfortable with the unknown can steer you towards a more fulfilling life.
Through her story, Mary shows how shifting your mindset can help you build confidence and invest in yourself. If you're ready to challenge your thoughts and tap into your true desires, this episode is a must-listen.
