Turn Dissatisfaction into Grateful action
Turn Dissatisfaction into Grateful action
#happyhighperformancehabits #joywithjen
“It seems no matter what I do, it is not good enough for you even you never say it out loud”, Cio (a close friend of mine) told me one day to my surprise. I was surprised because he could feel that energy that I felt deep inside me even I never spoke out loud.
He would join the event to support me with logistic, he would make a smoothie for me after I came back from running, he would wait for me to play sports. I said thanks but deep down I always felt it was what anyone could do.
After a month experiencing that hidden energy from me, he told me what he felt – feeling that hidden energy.
And then I realized that dissatisfaction came from my dissatisfaction with myself. I used to be told that I couldn’t do anything so I always tried to be better everyday and I sometimes never wanted to stop. I found that the dissatisfaction came from my lack of self-respect and self-worth.
Have you ever felt that before? That no matter what somebody did, you did not feel satisfied? And you also never satisfied with what you did? The dissatisfaction with the outside normally came from the inside.
So how can we deal with it?
We want to see the differences of being satisfied but at the same time never stop developing with being dissatisfied in a miserable way and you have to be better.
We want to try to be better with the good state of mind, the abundant state of mind not the lack state of mind, because it means the more we have, the more we feel the lack.
We want to acknowledge that we can be better and take enough time to integrate what we have done to feel content
Habits to turn dissatisfaction into grateful action:
- Journaling at the end of the day – write down what you feel thankful for and feel it, taking time to feel it
- Gathering your team or your family once a week to talk about what everyone has done well
- Asking others one great thing that they did everyday
What is your favourite way to turn dissatisfaction into grateful action?
