Benefits of a Potty Mouth
Does the phrase, Motivational Smart Ass offend you? If so, you may be less healthy than you could be…
When I launched the Motivational Smart Ass site, I knew some people would be put off by the use of the word “Ass.” For some, it qualifies as “cussing.”
But now there’s a steady that shows that swearing swearing can actually relieve pain.
That’s right, swearing can be good for you!
Take that Smart Ass!
Lesson 1: Letting things go in a healthy way
Ding Happens, and ideally you’ll be able to shrug it off and flow. But if not, getting things off your chest by swearing (in a private, appropriate way), exercising, journaling, hitting a heavy bag, etc., will not only help you move on, but will also help you lessen the pain of the Ding!
Lesson 2: Don’t get worked up over the little stuff
The fewer small, insignificant things you let affect you, the more energy, focus and creativity you will have to deal with the truly important things that matter.
I know people who get easily offended by just about anything. I tend to not spend a lot of time with these people. Life is too short to sweat the small stuff. And if you run around being offended and bothered by every little thing that doesn’t fit neatly into your view of how the world is, you will stress yourself out. You’ll also lose your credibility when you complain about the big stuff, and have a lot less energy and creativity to flow with the unexpected.
