This sweet Gerbera Daisy, marooned on the kitchen counter, wants to go outside!
She is however, not the object of the Whoops in title of this post.
Whoops is because one morning this week, I read an idea that I thought would be perfect for today’s post. I marked the email with a star.
And now it appears to have disappeared, star and all!
Whoever wrote the email (thank you whoever you are) named a decision making process, the 10/10/10 way of foolproof decision making. This appealed to me because my birthday is 10/10.
If you want to decide whether or not to get rid of something, say a huge two inch thick blank book that mostly has blank pages, you put it in a trash bag and wait 10 minutes.
If you still want to be rid of it after 10 minutes, leave it in the bag and make yourself wait for 10 hours. This will undoubtedly get you into the next day.
You’ve probably guessed the next instruction – put the trash bag somewhere out of the way for 10 days. After 10 days if you still want to pass it on, pass it on!
Use this on any decision and let me know how it works. I’m on the second day with the book in the bag, at least in my imagination. Let me know if you try this, how it works for you. I may report my experience though I’m not guaranteeing anything!
Thanks for exploring the mystery – Nicky Mendenhall
