Episode notes
You're Only Responsible For Your Own Chametz
- You are only responsible for your own chametz; other people's negativity is their issue not yours.
- Let people have their 'crashes' because sometimes they need them to change, and you can't always save them.
Negativity Is Addictive And Social Media Amplifies It
- Negativity is addictive and social media amplifies it, so positive content rarely spreads as fast as negative content.
- Gedale Fenster notes relapse is normal; if you fail, restart seven days to rewire your brain.
Avoid Angry Reactions That Cost Hours
- Avoid reacting in anger because an angry reaction typically takes about four hours to recover from and wastes productive time.
- Use the catch, cut, replace method to prevent long recovery cycles after triggers.
