You can find happiness by shouting out the things you don't want to do

This time, I'll be talking about the theme of
"It's better to avoid things you don't want to do as much as possible, right?"

Which do you think leads to more happiness: fulfilling what you "want to do" or escaping from what you "don't want to do"?

I personally think the latter leads to more happiness.

After all, doing things you don't want to do is seriously painful, isn't it? (lol)

I believe that arranging your life to avoid things you don't want to do as much as possible is the secret to living happily without stress.




But you're probably wondering, "How do I do that?"

It's surprisingly simple.

All you have to do is say the things you don't want to do out loud or write them down on paper.


I'll explain the reason why.



You can deal with "things you don't want to do" by recognizing them


I

absolutely hate
putting away washed dishes.

I don't mind washing them, but I absolutely hate putting the dishes away in the cupboard.

Since I hate putting dishes away, I basically use one plate for breakfast.

For frequently used dishes, I just repeat: use -> wash -> drying rack -> use.









I even get annoyed when my wife or children take new dishes out of the cupboard (lol).

(Who's going to put those dishes away?!)

That's what I think in my heart.

By the way, I also hate putting folded laundry into the dresser.

Anyway, putting things away is just a hassle.

Everyone has things they don't want to do, I think, but what do you all do about them?


Do you do them reluctantly?

Do you just silently grind through them while thinking how much you hate it and suppressing your frustration?

Try saying those things out loud or writing them down just once.

Once you put them into words or write them down and acknowledge, "Yeah, I really don't want to do this!," you start to think, "Well, what can I do to avoid it?"




Here is how I handle it.


Task: I hate putting away dishes

Countermeasures

  • Make one-plate meals

  • Collect dishes that are easy to clean up

  • Keep the dish cupboard organized

  • Reduce the number of dishes

  • Have my daughter help me

And so on.

When you think about it, there are actually quite a lot of ways to reduce the chore of putting away dishes.

You don't really notice this when you're just putting up with it and doing it out of habit.

It's only when you acknowledge, "I seriously don't want to do this," and start thinking about how to avoid it that you realize these things.


How to view the things you don't want to do objectively

To live a happy life,
recognizing what you don't want to do
is very important,
but

just thinking,
"I don't like that" or "I'm not good at that" in your head is not enough.

It is not enough to just think about it in your head.

Saying it out loud or writing it down
is incredibly important
.

Saying what you don't want to do out loud or writing it on paper.
Writing it on your smartphone is also fine.

In any form, you need to
get it out of yourself once.

The human brain
cannot view information from a third-party perspective
unless it comes from the outside.

In other words,
as long as you are thinking in your head,
you cannot view it objectively,
so you cannot calmly think of solutions.

Say it out loud,
and hear that voice with your ears.

Write it on paper or your smartphone,
and read the words with your eyes.

By taking what you are thinking in your head and putting it outside yourself,
and then taking it back in through your ears or eyes,
you can finally view it from a third-party perspective,
and you will be able to
think calmly.

In this way,
only after you can objectively view your "things you don't want to do"
can you start to come up with solutions
on how to avoid them.


Being liberated from "things you don't want to do" feels super good.

To live a happy life,
it is important to "do what you want to do," but
"not doing what you don't want to do"
is also a major factor in increasing happiness.

If you are doing things you don't want to do,
stress builds up,
and it also has a negative impact on your physical health.

If you avoid things you don't want to do,
you will also have time to do things you want to do.

"Doing what you want to do"
requires time and money,
so it is surprisingly difficult to take action.

On the other hand, avoiding things you don't want to do
does not require that much effort.

Despite that,
the feeling of being liberated from unpleasant things is exceptional
.

For someone who isn't a morning person,
isn't it incredibly blissful to be able to sleep in on your day off? (laughs)

I feel that being freed from "things I don't want to do"
is a better barometer for happiness
than fulfilling "things I want to do."

Why don't you,
try identifying
the things you don't want to do?

"I don't want to do this!
I seriously hate this!"

Try saying it out loud.
Try writing it down.

Just by getting your inner thoughts
out into the open,
your brain is tricked into thinking it has "externalized the problem,"
and your stress will be reduced.


What are the things you "don't want to do"?

P.S.

When I talk about this,
people tend to focus on
small daily tasks like
washing dishes, cooking, or laundry,
but
it's the same for work and your way of life.

I,
hate "having to work while being told what to do by someone else."

I really, truly hate it.
Yes. I am a social misfit (laughs).

As a result of shouting, "I hate being told what to do!"


"Then I'll stop going to the company"

↓ "I'll learn to earn money on my own"

that's what happened,
and I started a content business.
