Well, no you don’t have to do anything! In fact, let’s play a game...Every time we hear ourselves say, “Have to, need to, SHOULD or MUST”, let’s REFRAME it!
Why? you ask...Because those expressions come from our LIMITED human selves that feel SEPARATE from what we need and want and is constantly striving to achieve something that is not HERE NOW. Going deeper into that thought: when I say “should”, I’m judging that something’s wrong with what IS. Hmmmm...I can hear you thinking!
Let’s look at the reframes to see how we can flow more gracefully and effortlessly, so that we can both enjoy what IS and achieve a better future:
Old way: I should...
Reframe: I have the opportunity to...
Old way: I have to or need to...
Reframe: I GET to...
Old way: I must...
Reframe: I choose to...
