]]> Ideas worth thinking about Go Thinkabout 2024 Crystal Hunt Crystal Hunt false Crystal Hunt crystal@gothinkabout.com en https://gothinkabout.com/ I’ve been thinking a lot about how powerful a “better, not perfect” approach can be, and what happens when we adopt a mindset focused on swapping things—food, habits, routines, approaches, stuff—for something just a little bit better.

Some questions for journaling:

  • How do you feel about that shift of slowing that thing down?
  • Did it make you uncomfortable? And if so, why do you think that is?
  • If it did make you uncomfortable, was it the good kind of uncomfortable, in that it was leading to change or and you've learned something important about yourself?
  • How about the people around you? How did they experience this shift, and how do they feel about it (Go ahead and ask them.)
  • Are there any hidden gifts in that exchange or experience or approach that you're not seeing, but someone else can point out for you.
