I just noticed that I’ve been using the word “that” in a bunch of my recent titles (that righteous judgment, that perspective power, burning that creative match, etc...)
I have only recently adopted speaking like that into my audible vocabulary as well. It’s strange, but I do this all the time. I adopt little phrases, physical ticks or traits, and ways of dealing with people around me. I test them out and see how well they work and if they are helpful to me or the people around me. If not, I throw them away. But while I’m using them, I love them.
I think this is the reason I have little confidence I will begin something and stick with it, but if I do manage to stick with it, I can do the same thing every day for year after year.
If I lose interest or fail to see the purpose or value something big or small is adding to life, it’s practically impossible for me to continue doing it.
