a lot of ways Reopen those myriad social activities and commitments. In turn, board meetings, parties, cabin trips, Christmas dinners, family reunions, and parenting meetings should swallow up free time. Much of it must be documented.

The thought in me depicts a parody of the “Norwegian Herd”, which cannot or is able to do more than return to its turbulent fad. See how we cling when it comes to reclaiming our social relevance!

Should everyone participate in the game?

Would you rather use the best of lockdown to set healthy social boundaries for yourself? Then this is a flirtation for you.

Soon Fantasy Collective Fever For two years, we observed deserted Norway from our living room window. And as you read this, some of us are crossing our doorstep. We extend in the social surplus that trembles after its demise.

Now obedient corpses are thrown into the darkness of autumn! There are no good and quiet conversations with close friends who would rather talk to them more. Soon we will feel guilty for not being able to give them our precious free time.

I think we who want it now have a chance to choose differently. Who do you want to be now, and who in your life do you have the time and ability to mean something? think about it.

Don’t waste time on something you can’t change. Get out of the Christmas table early if you’re not enjoying it, no one really cares. Think about who gave life the joy of the past two years, and make them your tribe. Call them tonight and say out loud, “I haven’t forgotten you!”

If you can, give less of your time and energy to activities you don’t enjoy. This also applies to the people and the body you don’t have and how your Instagram account looks broken this year. Nobody really cares.

live for the flock Create your own thing with them, just because there is value in creativity. If your person values ​​you, it immediately becomes less important for others to be better and more successful. You stopped saying you were so tired, and when you were social this week, you really wanted to. Also, you had earnings for participating in the conversation.

Put everything you should have been involved in. Let the effects show how well they work. Now you don’t hear them. You left your cell phone in the hallway, now you’re making pancakes with your girlfriend.
