As I pulled a tissue out of the Puffs box this morning I thought about how easy it was to get a tissue out, even at the bottom of the box. Then it occured to me. Why didn't I buy Puffs before? I've been buying my own tissues for 23 years and I had always bought Kleenex brand. Why? Because that's what my mom bought and I just never thought about doing anything else. Tissue was not a subject that commanded my attention or created great joy or problems in my life. It's just something simple that was a part of my life.
So of course the next question is, "What else am I doing just because that's the way I've always done it?" If I take a moment and think about why I'm doing the things I do then maybe I can find other areas of my life that can be easier, better, more enjoyable when I make a small, painless change.
