Stop Shoulding All Over Yourself - Spam Filter For Your Brain - Episode 158
On this episode of Spam Filter for Your Brain, HeardinLondon (that's me, but I speak in a weird third person for the algorithm) talks about: Uncovering Hidden Obligations in Your Everyday Life
Key Takeaways:
“Should” as a clue to internal stories about what you feel obliged to do
Noticing where choices exist, versus feeling trapped or obligated
Acknowledging societal structures that enforce obligations and consequences
Identifying the source of your obligations by asking:
Who taught me this?
Do I like it?
What are the consequences if I don’t do it?
Do I choose this?
Replacing “should” with “want” to gain insight into true desires and motivations
Checking in with your body’s signals as a way to build trust with yourself
7. Actionable Disruption: Replacing “Should” with “Want”
Each time “should” arises, ask: “Do I want this?”
Using the word “should” as a mindful cue (like a Buddhist bell) to pause and realign with personal values
