I Took The ‘Couldn’t Care Less’ Approach And This Is How It Worked
Reclaim your sanity, clarity, and tenacity
I stopped giving a damn.
The story drafts were staring at me. I hadn’t finished packing with a travel date looming over my head. I needed to run a few errands.
CHA-CHING!
A work email entered my inbox. It’s already 7 pm. I skipped my strength workout today. Without a single damn to give, I put on my walking shoes.
Our adult life is often consumed by going from task to task. Those “adulting is a joke” memes have never felt more relatable.
If I have even 30 minutes of spare time in a day I panic — “Did I forget xyz?”
When I have no time to spare and a to-do list longer than toilet roll I stress.
I am the meme. We are the meme. It’s “Can adult, cannot adult” — forever.
It’s true, that adulting is chaotic, messy, and unpredictable.
But you know what isn’t??? Our attitude.
It is the one thing we have full control over — wayyyyyy more than we think.
And that day I witnessed the power of a “couldn’t care less” approach!
