My roommate has been trying to impress on me not to play the shoulda, woulda, coulda game. For those of you that dont know what that is basically its I shoulda done this, or I woulda done this, I coulda done this. Basically reflecting on past events that you cant change and nothing you do will change the out come.
Even though I realized how much time I waste playing this game I find myself going back to this game over and over and you know what? That's stressful! I don't need the extra stress or to waste energy playing this game that doesn't even make me happy. I should be spending that energy trying to make a positive impact on my life instead of fretting over the past. Now do I think this mindset will help me completely abandon the game. OF COURSE NOT! Im human and I have a good memory for my mistakes otherwise I wouldn't be able to learn from them but the next time I find myself needless playing the shoulda, woulda, coulda game I am going to ask myself is this helpful and if its not I am going to make a pointed effort to stop.
What about you do you play the game?
