'Should' is really simple to eliminate from your life. Just stop saying the word (or similar words like "would", "could", “have to” or “need to”). Ok, so maybe it's not as simple as that straight away. But if you become aware of just how often you say it you'll be able to adjust your language in the moment.
If you have shoulds in your life already, take a moment to make a decision and either COMMIT or DELETE.
If you COMMIT, make sure you fully commit, "I will", "I want to" - put it in your calendar, make a plan, seek support from someone to help you with it.
If you DELETE, be ok with saying “no thanks”, “that’s not a priority for me right now” or “I’m not going to do that, I don’t want to”.
Trust that saying ‘no’ for now doesn’t mean it’s a ‘no’ forever. If it pops up in the future it might be a commitment you’re then ready to make.
You don’t need to put pressure on yourself, to carry all the shoulds, all at once.
