Yes, it's a rude acronym.
It means:
Same Sh*t, Different Day
...and it was used to great effect in Stephen King's movie, "Dreamcatcher."
Frankly, if this is your truth - that your life seems stuck in a loop of 'same sh*t, different day' (and let's face it, it's the truth for most of us), you and I need to do something about it. I'm up for a change, are you?
Fortunately, there are tons of actions we can take once we know what to act on.
You see, the life you and I are experiencing is not an Island Life.
We are the fruit of our external environment AND our internal state.
Both can be changed.
Your environment matters - so make adjustments.
Your psychological state matters - so make adjustments.
The Power of Three
If there were three things you could change in your external environment, to improve your quality of life, what would they be?
Here are some ideas:
A change in your diet
A change of location
A shift in your rhythm each week
A change of decor and fixtures to celebrate the fact that you are a biological entity. E.g. natural light or daylight balanced lighting, ergonomic furniture, better ventilation.
A change of habit - such as walking in Nature more often
A change in the company you keep
Walk down a different street
Pick More Daisies.
What would your three be?
If there were three things you could change in your internal environment - your character, thought-life, values, and emotions - to improve your quality of life, what would they be?
Here are some ideas:
Have less rules (parents of large families learn this one quickly!)
Be less judgmental
Be more forgiving
Take yourself less seriously
Slow down and become more mindful.
The most exciting truth is that...
If you change anything, you change everything! [Which is WAY more encouraging than the standard, "if you keep on doing what you've always been doing, you'll keep on getting the SSDD.]
