529 || a romantic relationship with prep work
prep work is a major part of time spent "in the kitchen" Cleaning, slicing, dicing is 90% of the process while sautéing, plating, and enjoying is very minimal in the scheme of things - but if you’re a happy and fulfilled chef its not because you dread the other mise en place - you find the meditative repetitive aspect of it; you build a relationship with the process, and you often do need to ebb into that obsessive place to stay excited about what you’re producing. Like life - if you’re not enjoying the tedious nature of being a human, you really should try to work to change your relationship with that part, since it is so important and such a valuable piece in actually producing the magic.Support this show http://supporter.acast.com/make-your-damn-bed.

“Winning is defined differently for each of us but victory for me would be leaving here at peace with myself. I dunno what that is yet. You sometimes don’t like what you see + you become aware that you may need to change some things.” “Success is stumbling from failure to failure without losing enthusiasm”TUNE IN ON PATREON: www.patreon.com/MYDBpodcastSEE MY FACE + OTHER CONTENT: www.youtube.com/juliemerica GET A MONTHLY NOTE FROM ME: www.makeyourdamnbedpodcast.com TUNE IN ON INSTAGRAM FOR DAILY(ish) QUOTES: www.instagram.com/mydbpodcastluh you. and don't forget to drink your damn water.

526 || alone || a lesson in loneliness
Here's the second set of things I learned from watching the show ALONE: 2. The main thing that makes people give up on this dream of theirs - other than actual starvation or contracting some sickness or some shit, is that they miss home. Isolation is fucking horrible. 3. One Person’s trash is another person’s lifeline. Anything can become a resource or an asset if you are creative, persistent, practical, optimistic, and a decent problem solver. 4. The ability to shift when shit aint working + not getting your ego hurt by a disappointing outcome, can make all the difference in your longevity + the quality of your experience.TUNE IN ON PATREON: www.patreon.com/MYDBpodcastSEE MY FACE + OTHER CONTENT: www.youtube.com/juliemerica GET A MONTHLY NOTE FROM ME: www.makeyourdamnbedpodcast.com TUNE IN ON INSTAGRAM FOR DAILY(ish) QUOTES: www.instagram.com/mydbpodcastluh you. and don't forget to drink your damn water.Support this show http://supporter.acast.com/make-your-damn-bed.

525 || alone || a lesson in attitude
The most valuable lesson I've learned from binge-watching a bush-whacking show is: 1. Attitude is the number one dictator of success or failure. It’s almost fool proof to assume if one of the contestants is shown mourning their family or losing their cool, or losing their temper, or losing their positive energy around the “mission” that they will give up within the next few days. Whether that be an editing tactic or a real read of human psychology, I couldn’t care less - because it makes sense - as soon as you give up mentally you are almost guaranteeing your inevitable failure. It’s the classic quote, “whether you believe you can or you can not, you’re right.”TUNE IN ON PATREON: www.patreon.com/MYDBpodcastSEE MY FACE + OTHER CONTENT: www.youtube.com/juliemerica GET A MONTHLY NOTE FROM ME: www.makeyourdamnbedpodcast.com TUNE IN ON INSTAGRAM FOR DAILY(ish) QUOTES: www.instagram.com/mydbpodcastluh you. and don't forget to drink your damn water.Support this show http://supporter.acast.com/make-your-damn-bed.

524 || robert ross is a teacher + a painter
the lesson:even if your life is in shambles right now + there’s a big ass ugly black tree trunk right in the middle of your beautiful landscape of life + all you wanna do is throw the whole damned thing away!?? Tune into that bob ross energy and let it add to your masterpiece. Your curses can become assets with some honing. So, keep fucking going. Don’t give up - just stay calm + redirect that energy into improving the situation at hand instead of sulking about the way it used to be or look or feel. You can create magic when you take what you’ve been handed and view it as a gift + a tool for growth rather than a punishment. Life is hard enough + if we can focus on making those subtle shifts towards positivity, improving the situation with the tools we are supplied.TUNE IN ON PATREON: www.patreon.com/MYDBpodcastSEE MY FACE + OTHER CONTENT: www.youtube.com/juliemerica GET A MONTHLY NOTE FROM ME: www.makeyourdamnbedpodcast.com TUNE IN ON INSTAGRAM FOR DAILY(ish) QUOTES: www.instagram.com/mydbpodcastluh you. and don't forget to drink your damn water.Support this show http://supporter.acast.com/make-your-damn-bed.
