This morning I was moving boxes around at work and of course, got hot and sweaty. Not a condition I generally enjoy. My first thought was damn I'm thirsty, I'll run downstairs and grab me a Coke.
On my way downstairs to get a Coke, I stopped in the ladies room and while in there thought, "I know I do not need a Coke. They're empty calories, been giving me indigestion, cost too much and making me feel ikky. I should just drink water."
On the way back to my office with it firmly set in my mind that I was just going to grab a water out of the fridge, I passed the elevators and paused by the button, reaching out to push it, almost without realizing what I was doing. At that moment, I was like wtf, I was going to drink water, why am I stopping at the elevator. I then kept walking back into my office and to the fridge.
I eventually went and got a Coke, but it was 2 hours later when I started getting sleepy.
But I realized that oftentimes we know what we're doing right or wrong, we actually stop and think about it and yet often times, we do it anyway. Somewhere between the knowing better and the doing something is getting wacked up for me, at least when it comes to yummy snacks and stuff.
I would love feed back on this great brain storm of mine. Maybe I should stop and go pee every time I am about to head down to get a coke.
