Remember a chemistry lesson:
to be happier and more stable we may have to give something away
(like a sodium atom giving up an electron)
***I love revisiting chemistry lessons and being able to apply the concept of stable valence electron shells to my life. (I know… I am a nerd! Thanks Dad.) This lesson is such a great reminder to simplify things – sometimes the easiest way to stability is giving something up.
Do I really need to do laundry today? Do I have to dust the furniture now? Could I leave those boxes unpacked until tomorrow? Could I say “no” to the next project I was asked to do? Do I have to finish all 18 things on my list by the end of today?
