THIN LINE BETWEEN “I COULDN’T” & “I WOULDN’T” OR “WILL NOT”

It’s an interesting thing to learn about yourself. We often avoid explaining our real emotion as we think it might cook more questions and answers to deal with and to avoid such scenarios, we frame a small story with a different cause and present it to people so that they will not judge or demean you and accept the presented reason rather than look for real reason. In fact, we do this even to ourselves. And when we repeat the framed reason multiple times with different people and increase its acceptance rate, the reason automatically converts into an assumed reality and we start making decisions considering it as a real experience. Confusing?

Let me explain. Imagine I am convincing you to join me for bungee jumping. You know it’s one of the scariest emotion to deal with or in fact you don’t want to experience it, but to avoid all the effort in convincing and reasoning, you come up with a cause (maybe back pain) and you know with this cause you can convert the reason to “I couldn’t” rather than “I wouldn’t” or “don’t want too”. But when you repeat these reasons multiple times, you would start believing that you might have back pain.

It was just an example, but we do this thing very often than we realize. Like in life (touch wood, you met with an accident), in-office (don’t feel like working today), at home (Pubg just got interesting), with friends (he brag too much about himself/herself) and many.

You might feel it as a harmless lie which only you know about but in fact, it’s the foundation of your belief system.

There are thousands of cases been fought in our courts, just to differentiate the reason from “I couldn’t” to “I wouldn’t” or “will not”. We often see people fighting on road saying I couldn’t lower the speed because my leg was stuck or some other reason, but in fact, there might be a phone chat or an alcohol refreshments happening in the background and when you get away for the first time, then you start using this publically accepted cause again and again. This thing is exactly like a beggar, who developed this belief that people offer money if I spread my hand since he got his first coin.

Now, is it a good practice or a bad practice? If you ask me, I believe it’s bad because I am making a decision on the reason which actually I never experienced in my real life and also it helps me get away from the challenge I might accept or even excel. I might run for 50km, I might invent a future technology, I might learn some new algorithm from this code, I might do bungee jumping or I might get a treat from this unknown grandma if I help her with her bags, you don’t know, No one knows for sure, not even you until you try it.

I might is a very good feeling because it gives hope. It gives you the strength and confidence to accept anything and convert it into a challenge or “I would” scenario, it curates the first emotion of the real experience. Also “I might” is very different from “I would” because “I would” is confirmed conclusion of  “I might” So, it is my personal suggestion, which every type of person you are, please try adding “I might” at least once in your daily routine. The satisfaction of planning for “I would” comes only after the curious dream of “I might”. Be an “I might” person. #naturewalkers
