We all have days when we are faced with chores, errands, or responsibilities
that we don’t want to do. At times like these, it’s easy to get into a bad
mood and stay in one as we tackle these tasks. However, given that our bad
mood will not change the things we have to do and will most likely make
things worse, we should try to shift our attitude. Many wise people have
pointed out that it is not so much what we do as it is how we do it that
makes the difference in our lives.
It’s important when we’re facing something that’s really hard for us, whether
it’s doing taxes, paying bills, or visiting a challenging relative, that we
lovingly support ourselves through the process. The more supported we feel,
the easier it is to open our minds to the idea that we can change our way of
looking at the situation. In truth, most of the chores we don’t like doing
are intimately intertwined with our blessings. When we remember this, we feel
gratitude, which makes it hard to stay in a dark mood.
We can shift our attitude by considering how much we love our home as we
clean it and how lucky we are to have a roof over our head. Any task can be
transformed from a burden to a necessary aspect of caring for something we
love. All we have to do is shift our perspective, and our attitude will
follow shortly behind.
