Why should you take care of things?

Why should you take care of things? by Magicthreadworks

Even when you can easily replace them when you like. My husband believes that when you are deprived of things in life while growing up, you end up keeping every little thing that you have with more care and affection. On the other hand, I have ended up becoming a person who refuses to acknowledge the things. My take being if I have lived so long without much of the things without remorse, the little that I have couldn’t bind me either.

Now the working of mind is such, it just understands a skill irrespective of where you are trying to implement it. I often quote that the state of your room is often the state of your time. You are always the same person across people and things by default. At some places you just put conscious effort to be different.

Now this conscious act is not sustainable and becomes a strain overtime. The reason why people change after marriage is because the conscious effort is not considered a requirement anymore, which is not true.

The idea is, when you have identified a part of your personality which really works, it’s better to make it part of your muscle memory. Then the skill becomes part of your default unconscious self, hence works even when you are not working on it consciously.

This is where taking care of things features back. If you practice taking care of things which may matter less, you would have built a habit to unconsciously take care of the things which matter the most.
