Agreed, one thing I have learned is this, I'm doing all the right things for me, because I should.
Yes, I still want to hear an attaboy, thank you, anything that would show some gratitude. It ain't coming any time soon if at all.
So I keep reminding myself that this is for me. This is what I should do.
I make it a funny script in my head. I hear Chris Rock's voice saying, "that's what you're supposed to do". I don't know if you are familiar with his standup, but that is from a part in one of his acts where he is talking about guys being so proud of not going to jail, paying child support or spending time with their kids. It's what your supposed to do, is the line Chris Rock keeps repeating.
This strategy has been helping me. Everytime I start to feel some urge to point out all I'm doing as part of my challenge to be a better man, I just hear Chris Rock's voice in my head, it's what you're supposed to do. LOL.
