Listen "23. Operating Instructions"
Episode Synopsis
In this episode we will talk about Instruction Manual. Did you know you have a manual for your life? This is our internal rule book and operating instructions on how we think we should be and everyone in the world and in our life should be. Most of the time we are not even aware that we have this manual running our lives and it causes a lot of disappointment and dissatisfaction and sometimes even anger or frustration that people are not "following our manual" which is doing or saying or reacting in a certain way ... .the way we think they should. The problem IS that we often don't realize that we DO have our own operating instructions our OWN Manual of How we should be How they should be - and I mean 'they' as in everyone but US We have manuals for our Our Spouse/Partner Our children Our friends Our neighbors The clerk at the grocery store The drivers in traffic The weather The airlines Our kids teachers Our family…our mothers, our fathers….we have BIG MANUALS for them with a table of contents of ALL the things they should have DONE, they should NOT have done and how they should be with us NOW and with our kdis….etc etc etc Once we realize we have these manuals running our life we can decide on purpose - write our manuals intentionally, create our own Operating instructions for US and for OUR LIFE. Life becomes much easier, more fun and less stressful and anxious when we drop our manuals of how we think things should be and allow people to be themselves. We talk about: Getting our daily schedule as part of our daily operations Anne Lamott book: Operating Instructions: A Journal of My Son's First Year Google says a manual is a book that gives you practical instructions on how to do something or how to use something. We have these manuals for everyone in our life and we love them but when they don't act according to our manual, we are very disappointed or even angry. Be true to ourselves and let other people be true to themselves.
