Governments across the world are ordering and in some cases killing their citizens to obey their command. I am not going to get into the politics of national governments, but I am going to ask you to take a close look at something worse. The self-governing of yourself.
Ouch! This means you have nobody to blame except the person staring back at you in the mirror. How good are you at self-governing? Well, here is a little quiz to help you out.
BUT BEFORE GETTING TO THE QUIZ…
Rank your level of self-governance on a scale of 1 – 7 with 1 being lack of and seven being total self-governance.
Now, that you have a score answer these questions…
1. Are you in tip-top shape for performing the tasks you need to do and want to do to live the life you want?
2. Do you go to bed and get up at the same time every day without watching “just one more episode” or checking your phone, email, or bat-watch?
3. Do you forego the fatty, salty, sugary foods for healthy, green, fibrous, nutrient-rich foods?
4. Do you lash out in anger when something isn’t just the way you want it or when somebody doesn’t have the same view as you?
5. Can you maintain composure when all around are spiraling out of control?
Now, re-rank yourself self-governance score. Looks like there may be some work to do 😉
Before judging how bad of a job our government is doing or for that matter how terrible a job anybody is doing take a good long look at your self-governance. Are you doing as good of a job as you could do? If not, start there.
