STFU and Do Something

I have this voice in my head that likes to pop up whenever I am unhappy about something.  It never fails me and on many occasions it has been there faithfully to push me in the right direction.  There were many things that I have been be unhappy about. . .


  • I just got out the hospital and I lost 5 lbs because of my stay.  I was lean before, now I'm damn near skinny. . .unhappy
  • This wedding I'm paying for got my finances looking questionable. . .unhappy
  • Even in instances in past relationships. . .unhappy
  • My place is a mess. . .unhappy
  • I'm kinda bored. . .unhappy.
 Whenever those unhappy thoughts popped in my head the same voice would come back and just say one thing:

"SHUT THE FUCK UP AND DO SOMETHING ABOUT IT"

Once I heard this, I immediately got back to action and bypassed being in a pity party attitude.  I got a plan to gain my weight back, made a budget to save and put money towards this wedding, got out of those past relationships, cleaned up, and found something to do.

I've found that being unhappy is a choice and the voice in my head refuses to be in that state of mind.  So the next time you find yourself in a rut, a funk, feeling down and just unhappy.  Ask yourself, why you're there and then STFU and do something about it.
