One Thing. . .
How you do one thing is aurprisingly how you do everything.
Ever since that initial discovery, this pattern has popped into my awareness over and over again. I see it in myself, in people in my life, and even in strangers I observe.
Yhis cauaed me to wonder what the origins of such wisdom were.?
“How you do one thing is how you do everything” is an old saying that I heard on some podcast. The phrase means the way we handle seemingly small, inconsequential situations is a reflection of how we handle everything else in our lives.
Our specific habits, dispositions, and traumas get stored in our body. Billions of neurons fire, electric pulses explode through the brain and nervous system, genes express, hormones proliferate, and the body responds. Those patterns are then retained in cellular memory.
Every experience we have is like writing a program into our biological hardware. The more we repeat it or the more emotionally impactful the experience is, the stronger the program becomes in our system. Then as we move through life and encounter new situations, we default to the subconscious, and automatically execute these ‘programs’.
It may seem meaningless in isolation, but actually sets a standard of behavior that profoundly impacts everything else in your life.
Peace and Love, Jim
