Day 139 || Discernment

Sorry this one is so long - I got into it. Maybe this is the day you make your bed AND floss your teeth!?Remember that google isn’t always a reliable resource and people skew false data all the time to fit their agenda so learn to really discern between authentic scientific research and false claims. You’re smart and capable but you’re fallible too - and the sooner you recognize that - the sooner the world can begin to heal from this toxic pride that comes from being considered ‘right’ even when they’re wrong. Widen your communication network, be open to multiple sources on a topic, and remember that the truth is out there - even if you have to do a little digging to get to it.Make Your Damn Bed is a real talk, daily motivation podcast to play while you make your bed* every morning. Each season is 66 days long to incorporate new healthy habits of your choosing into your daily life.Build momentum - better your life.

Day 138 || Hard Work is Bullshit

Working hard is bullshit. The hardest jobs I have ever had were the worst paying jobs. The highest paying jobs expect the least from me. I have experienced a difference in respect and expectations as I have moved up the proverbial ladder of American labor hierarchy. It’s bullshit. You can’t ever work your way to a billion dollars.Make Your Damn Bed is a real talk, daily motivation podcast to play while you make your bed* every morning.

Day 137 || Debt Culture

There is this constant expectation that everyone should hustle. Some people genuinely believe that if you don’t work hard, you don’t deserve to survive. Not only is this problematic as all hell, it’s also demonstrably false.Remember that money is energy and you can create that energy without letting that energy convert yours. The more you can stay on top of it, the less burdensome the whole thing can become. We all deserve to get away from the debt America seems to believe we owe it. If you’re not in a position to do that yet - go easy on yourself and you being in debt was the whole point In the meantime, we should go easy on ourselves and remember the game was rigged.Make Your Damn Bed is a real talk, daily motivation podcast to play while you make your bed* every morning.

Day 136 || Revolution

CONTENT WARNING: mention of white supremacy and racism //The revolution is upon us. We are all awaiting some grand announcement - but it isn’t coming. The revolution is here. A lot of us are waiting patiently for the boogieman to show up but the boogie man is already here. The boogieman haunts every part of American society. He’s in our spending habits, our phone addictions, our dead end jobs, our toxic relationships, and our relationships with ourselves. The good thing is? The power is in the people.www.makeyourdamnbedpodcast.comThe Make Your Damn Bed Podcast is a real talk, daily motivation podcast to play while you make your bed every morning.

Day 135 || Privilege

It’s not about taking things away and making life worse for those with privilege - it’s about finding improvements and making life better for those without. There is and always has been enough pie for everyone. If you have an extra fork, share it! Plus, the idea of getting fat off a pie that others aren’t even welcome to - sounds disgusting to me anyway. Instead of fighting your neighbors for the crumbs, figure out who took the fucking pie.Make Your Damn Bed is a real talk, daily motivation podcast to play while you make your bed* every morning.

Day 134 || Seek Out Rejection

As you get comfortable asking for everything you want you will get comfortable hearing the word no. Eventually you can get more confident and creative and start noticing what you can ask for that can help the world around you - that open land in the neighborhood may be a community garden project waiting to happen or the local restaurants may need somewhere to donate their leftover baked goods at the end of the evenings.Make Your Damn Bed is a real talk, daily motivation podcast to play while you make your bed* every morning.

Day 132 || Secrets (Finale)

To nurture this authenticity in our relationships, we must first get comfortable living authentically. Instead of adapting our personality to fit every situation, recognize that we can read the room, practice kindness, and still hold onto your own sense of honest identity by aligning our choices with our personal virtues. All you have to do is know who you are - after that - you can just allow yourself to be. Sometimes we will be compelled to share our stories openly and other times, it will be better to stay quiet and observe. Sometimes we’ll need to communicate our feelings and other times we will need to support others in theirs. Life is about balance. Decide what works for you and leave behind the rest.Make Your Damn Bed is a real talk, daily motivation podcast to play while you make your bed* every morning.

Day 131 || Embracing Boredom

Do you embrace boredom or do you run from it? Repetitive boredom comes from doing the same shit over and over until it becomes a subconscious habit. This means you don’t have to be thoughtful about a task, you can throw on autopilot and it will get done. This type of boredom is avoidable by bringing more mindfulness into your tasks. See where you can add creativity or spice it up to feel more gratifying if you want.Make Your Damn Bed is a real talk, daily motivation podcast to play while you make your bed* every morning.
