Routines vs Rituals - One May Be Stunting Your Progress
Episode description
We all have routines. Morning routines, routines at work, routines for getting ready for bed. Routines are important and help us get stuff done, especially as packed and busy our lives can be. Routines help us keep order in what otherwise could be a very chaotic life.
When routines are imbued with emotion, when there there’s an emotional attachment, it then becomes ritual, and here’s where we can get into trouble.
If our emotional stability is anchored to a routine (i.e. it’s become ritualized), what happens if unexpected circumstances throws things off?
Routine is good but we need flexibility if and when things don’t go according to schedule. We lose that flexibility if we’ve ritualized our routines, if we’ve attached our emotional stability to those routines.
So be careful that you’ve distinguished between your routines and your rituals. Rituals certainly have their place. But not in our tasks and to do’s.
This detachment is essential to progress and growth in your business.
