The Lens of Opportunity

Fragments from imaginary dialogues

“How can I get rid of the impulse to check for likes?“

“Look at it through the lens [<link; short read] of Opportunity.

Opportunity To Learn (OTL)
– Why do you want to check for likes?
– What can you learn about yourself?

Opportunity To Practice/Play (OTP)
– Why don’t you want to check for likes?
– What can you practice?“

“I can practice Letting Go.

Letting go of desires.
Letting go of expectations.

I can practice Discipline (Self-Mastery).“

“Don’t forget the Opportunity To Celebrate (OTC).

Artfully replace the dopamine hit of checking for likes with the dopamine hit of not checking for likes. (Inversion)“
