Feeling satisfied--even when something isn't perfect--allows you to embrace a good-enough mentality. This week, Janine and Shannon discuss the importance of finding (and recognizing) satisfaction. Feeling satisfied doesn't lead to complacency--in fact, it's life enhancing.
Discussion topics include:
•Janine’s shocking (to Shannon) inability to tell a joke
• How feeling satisfied is an important aspect of a good-enough mentality
• Looking for places to feel satisfied without perfection
• Paying attention to what you can do instead of what you can’t do (and feeling satisfied with that)
• Shannon’s post-concussion challenges and how she is trying to feel satisfied with what she is able to do
• Gratitude vs satisfaction
• Setting yourself up to feel satisfied by putting the brakes on perfectionism
• Applying this concept to your task list (hint: include tasks instead of projects on your list and keep the list short)
• How being satisfied with less than perfect doesn’t make you complacent
• The fact that feeling satisfied can actually enhance your productivity
• How you can feel satisfied with something while also looking to improve it (which Janine is proving with her new yoga practice)
• Cultivating the habit of finding satisfaction in where you are, rather than waiting for satisfaction to find you
