If I think about a subject

The solution to this, to stop us from ruminating and being anxious… Ruminating means… You know, a cow, she ruminates, she takes grass, and with her mouth, she makes a sort of circular movement. Too bad we're not on video, you would have seen me ruminating. It's just a podcast, fortunately. So the cow ruminates, that is to say she passes the grass into her mouth in a circular way. And when we ruminate, it is of course in the figurative sense, because we don't eat grass, and that means thinking about the same thing over and over and over again without finding the key, without finding the solution. That's "ruminating". And the real solution to this, to ruminating, is to think on paper.
And it's a rule that I set for myself.more than three, four times... Then it's an empirical rule, that is to say it's not something automatic, written somewhere and to be followed at all costs. But if I think a little too much about the same subject, it means that I have to think on paper, that I have to reflect and that I have to make sure to have more clarity, quite simply. And so to have clarity, I take my journal.
And that's true for the little worries, the little new zealand whatsapp number data things that I have to solve, it's also true for the little decisions, but it's especially true, well it's even more important for the big worries and the big decisions.
So in the category of small worries or small decisions, for example, I used my journal to rebuild the 7 rules. The course "7 rules for speaking French without blocking" came from there. I started to think with myself, I said to myself: "So how am I going to do it? When am I going to do it?" I had a tendency to procrastinate, to put things off until later. Besides, we had brought them up to date, we had updated them in 2014 and I waited until 2023 before updating them. So I had a lot of questions, questions, and I wrote it all down on paper, because otherwise every time I took a shower, every time I went for a walk, I actually thought about it, so I wrote it all down on paper. However, it's not a big worry, it's not a problem, it wasn't a problem in my life.
Another topic, expatriation. I talked about it in an episode and I'll talk about it today... a little later, sorry, I'm not going to talk about it today. But I expatriated in 2022 and it's the same. I had a lot of anxiety. Where to go? Am I sure, after making the decision, ah should I talk about it? Really lots of questions, lots of questions, and it was very complicated for me to know what to do. I thought about it on paper.
In terms of my investments, because I am preparing as an independent, as an entrepreneur, I have to think about my retirement myself and that suits me very, very well, but I have to think about my investments for my future and the future of my family. Same thing, I had questions, I thought about it on paper.
I am building a new morning routine, I am thinking on paper. I am about to build my goals for 2024, personal and for Français Authentique, I have already started thinking on paper.
