A "Showerthought" is a simple term used to describe the thoughts that pop into your head while you're doing everyday things like taking a shower, driving, or just daydreaming. A showerthought should offer a unique perspective on an ordinary part of life.

Rules

  1. All posts must be showerthoughts
  2. The entire showerthought must be in the title
  3. Avoid politics
    • 3.1) NEW RULE as of 5 Nov 2024, trying it out
    • 3.2) Political posts often end up being circle jerks (not offering unique perspective) or enflaming (too much work for mods).
    • 3.3) Try c/politicaldiscussion, volunteer as a mod here, or start your own community.
  4. Posts must be original/unique
  5. Adhere to Lemmy's Code of Conduct

There's a self-help book about this concept:

The Slight Edge: Turning Simple Disciplines into Massive Success and Happiness

In a nutshell, The Slight Edge is over a 250-page exhortation of the power of making small decisions that accumulate over time into a significant difference.

the universe is in constant change, one cannot stand still. You are either progressing, or declining, but you are never just hovering in the middle.

That hit home. Thanks for sharing this.

Instructions unclear. Forgot to eat breakfast and then it was dark out

Falling down is progressing at something fast too.
