Good morning and welcome
to your morning cereal.
Okay, good morning and welcome to Monday
and welcome to March.
It is the month of the madness.
Well, I hope you had a great weekend
and today we are shining the spotlight
on World Teen Mental Wellness Day.
It's not easy growing up these days,
so supporting mental
health and resilience
should start early and
your support matters.
All right, Friday's
trivia answer, ach tung.
Watch out in German and part of a U2
album title is ach tung.
And now it's time for
the essential vitamins
in your morning cereal, today's quote.
And it's from birthday
boy turning 58 today, Craig,
Daniel Craig, who said, quote,
"Life is about finding better
ways to do things," end quote.
Your morning decode is
that the meaning in life
is not a static destination,
but in the continued
process of improvement.
Even James Bond evolves.
All right, well, let's go ahead and hear
from the experts now.
It is time to pour in some Let Them
Theory by Mel Robbins.
Now, chapter 20 as a
whole is about endings,
alignment, and emotional maturity.
It threaded together
compatibility, heartbreak,
deal breakers, and self-worth
under one unifying principle,
stop resisting reality.
Now, Mel repeats the phrase
that anchors the whole book,
let them, let people reveal who they are,
let endings unfold,
let misalignment surface
without scrambling to control it.
And throughout this chapter,
she has challenged the instinct to chase.
When someone pulls away, we chase them.
When something ends, we negotiate.
When discomfort
appears, we search for better.
But she refrains power as restraint.
She writes, quote, "When you stop chasing
"what isn't choosing you,
"you create space for
what will," end quote.
Now, that line, it
summarizes the emotional shift
that she wants readers to make.
Instead of convincing someone to stay,
convince yourself to honor clarity.
So the chapter also addresses
compatibility versus chemistry.
Butterflies will fade,
share direction it sustains.
She reminds readers that, quote,
"Compatibility lives in your daily
decisions," end quote.
Not in highlight reels, right?
Not in intensity.
Heartbreak is treated not as
failure, but as redirection.
That pain is real
neurologically and emotionally,
but it is survivable when we meet it
with boundaries and support.
Dealbreakers are reframed
as protective, not punitive.
Standards are stabilizing.
And the final pivot inward,
recognizing that you are
the love of your life, right?
Centers the entire
message around self-respect.
Chapter 20 ultimately is teaching
emotional efficiency.
Stop over-analyzing
behavior that is clear.
Stop romanticizing misalignment.
Stop resisting endings
that are revealing something important.
Let reality inform you.
Let clarity guide you.
Let people be who they
show you that they are.
All right, here is your Monday takeaway.
Emotional strength comes
from accepting reality quickly,
honoring your standards
and trusting that
clarity leads you forward.
So check on someone today.
Check in on a team today.
Make sure they're all good
and also check in on
yourself while you're at it, okay?
Now it's time for the prize
from the bottom of the cereal boxes.
