Path to bliss: Attack THAT thing.

BONZAI! (Japanese translation "Let's go CRAZY!")

I want to you attack something.

Yes, I am usually a “go with the metaphysical” flow kind of gal, but this time. This one little time. I want to you to kick some serious ass.

It is the road to bliss. Your bliss. Not mine (unless you tell me, and  please do, on the comment section.)

Not just anything or anyone that happens to pop their head in your office/cubical/kitchen/front door or evil lair. I want you to attack something specific.

Look around. Find it. You know what I’m talking about THAT thing. The one that thing you look at every fucking day with dread, embarrassment. The one you… sigh… will get around to when you have a moment.

THAT thing.

Get up. Go over and deal with it. Deal with it like a crazy person. It either gets filed, fired, thrown out, sent, delivered (NOW!) to the neighbor who passive-aggressively “ignores” you ’cause you been so lax in returning their stupid report/bundt pan/folding table/calculator/weed-whacker. (I love the word “weed-whacker,” just so you know.)

Snap on the crazed “oh lawdy… they’re gonna blow” look of determination and just deal with the mother-effin thing. You’re going to be shocked how easy it was to get done. And how freakin’ happy and … even BLISSful you’re going to be once it is done.

Accomplishment. Whew. Satisfaction with job well done.

Bliss.

(Repeat process tomorrow.)

   this article itself kicks ass Betsy! I totally love the way you write.. so relatable. Yes – reminds me of a quote from That 70′s Show– “where zen ends, ass-kicking begins” – definitely a time and place for everything~
