Mentioning it makes it real

You can’t mention that you might make chocolate chip cookies to a kid. Might means can. Might means will. Might doesn’t mean maybe. Mentioning it makes it real. And then you have to follow through. 

What if that were the case with the words we speak to ourselves? 

I might look for a new job. I might take time off. I might invest my savings in something. I might write a book. I might buy a mountain bike.

What might you do?
