EFT For Releasing Unuseful Commitments (Pod #300)

Support the podcast! Quit has become a dirty word. American football coach Vince Lombardi is credited with saying that "Winners never quit and quitters never win!" Early in the movie "Molly's Game" (based on the life of Molly Bloom) there is a flashback to Molly's childhood and a session training to be a competitive skier. After hours of training she asks her father (who is also her coach) if she can quit because she is tired. Her father replies that she can quit only after she gives him a synonym for tired. She thinks about it for a moment and says "weak". Feeling defeated she heads back up the hill to keep training. There is a deeply ingrained mentality in our culture that honors pushing through, in working hard, in overcoming difficult times. The problem is that there are many tasks, activities, and commitments that we should quit. Sometimes the projects we start aren't what we thought they would be, do not give us the returns we expected, take way longer than we planned, or we have just plain outgrown them. It is OK to let go of commitments that no longer serve us! More than likely you felt some resistance as you read that last line. If that is the case, this is the perfect tap-along for you.
