Brains are like toddlers. You can use every trick in the book to get them to do a task and sometimes they Simply Won’t
“If they won’t do the task, they may not know how! Try teaching them the task without judgement ☺️”
cool cool, the task is something that is done several times a day but after explaining it one more time nothing has changed
“Try making the task fun! No one likes chores but everyone likes games!”
regrettably the toddler and/or brain has no interest in engaging with me, even if it’s a “game.” the toddler/brain is content doing something else
“Set a timer! Let them know that it will be time to change activities and then stick to it!!”
this. this doesn’t work. why does everyone pretend this works, this literally doesn’t do anything
“If you find yourself getting frustrated, the best thing might be doing something else and coming back to it later”
that’s just procrastination with better PR
