Have you ever said I should have done something, I could have said something, or I would have done something IF? Yep, me too, more times than I care to admit. It is something we say after an event or experience and it usually carries a tone of regret. It can be a motivator to help us make changes the next time around but we don’t want that kind of rhetoric to rule our behaviors or linger around too long. Consider exchanging the word “will” with shoulda or coulda. Doesn’t it sound like there is more power and accountability when you make the change? Try and see if there is follow through!
