Unteaching

Determination, resilience, grit – these are all skills you can teach yourself.

Empathy, listening and caring, too.

That being said, just as important as it is to learn and grow these skills; it’s important to unteach ones that aren’t helpful.

Ego, fear, and anxiety.

Negativity, stress and worry, too.

To unteach requires two efforts: It’s nipping the bad skills in the butt when they show up and it’s refocusing the energy on their opposites.

Simple, but hard. Hard, but effective.

Stay Positive & Get At It
