Hi all,
So I'm walking the dogs this am and pondering this excellent post from the Art of Manliness,
http://www.artofmanliness.com/2016/08/15/what-do-you-want-to-want/ when I see a parking lot filling up with solo drivers in trucks and SUVs and I think, "A day when I don't drive is a good day."
Then I realized a couple of things about my day yesterday: 1. I didn't have to drive anywhere; 2. I was outside several times, exercising in the fresh air; 3. I ate healthy meals with no meat.
It made me wonder whether we don't need a term for the tendency I (and possibly others) have to overlook the positive actions/changes/trends in our daily lives, absorbing them thoughtlessly and proceeding to fixate on the next worthwhile actions/changes/trends that we desire to see happen in our lives.
Moral of the story: to give ourselves a little credit, a little slack.
Virtuistic adaptation?...
