Daily Snippets of Immediate Satisfaction

We are doomed to being dissatisfied. Frustrated. Haunted by the fact that “there’s something missing”….

Everything, every day is a never ending (better said never endable) task. Perennially suspended, unfinished. Never enough. Never closed.  That Facebook feed never ceasing to show new stories, the flow of emails making productivity levels plunge… and then there’s all the maintenance – eating, cleaning, paying bills….

So it’s up to you to avoid being sucked in by this whirlpool. AND ACTUALLY DO SOMETHING!!

There are many ways: you can go find yourself in India; you can get drunk; you can just embody frustration fully and crash on the coach,…

Or you can engage in little moments of immediate satisfaction and accomplishment. (I know what you’re thinking: “Isn’t getting drunk exactly that?” Yes, but it’s bad for your liver and it can be a bit expensive. Plus you forget the satisfaction afterwards.)

So these are not recipes to change your life. This is not about a most likely nonexistent “call” or “project of a lifetime”. Face it: where all stuck in our lives! And that’s fine. Just make sure you have a snippet of satisfaction (and accomplishment) every day. Start and finish something and savor the outcome of your accomplishment. It’s quite a trip!

Salpico.com shall give you some suggestions on how to do that! Folks here practice every day!

These are little antidotes. Little satisfaction fixes. Engage in daily moment of something you can actually accomplish fully and indulge in the incomparable and priceless taste of having something done. And done WELL. By YOU. Just because – not because someone asked you, told you to or is expecting you to. With no need for exterior approval.

Then again, you can also get a shrink, but really: doing this stuff is much more fun, pleasant and – boy! – cheap.
