October 6th is Come and Take It Day, the perfect excuse to finally claim what’s rightfully (or questionably) yours. The day originated from the Texas Revolution, but let’s face it—this holiday’s way more fun when you use it as a license to “acquire” things. Of course, we’re not talking grand theft here. Think of this as your personal reminder to boldly go after what you want—whether it’s a goal, an extra slice of cake, or that last word in an argument.
5 Ways to Masterfully "Take It":
- Claim That Last Slice of Pizza
It’s been sitting there long enough. You know it, they know it. Don’t ask—just take. You’re doing everyone a favor. - Take the Day Off
“Come and Take It” applies to time, too. Seize the opportunity to call in sick. Your couch misses you, and you’ve earned this… probably. - Grab the Remote
You’ve been watching their show for days. It’s time to reclaim your Netflix destiny. They’ll get over it. Eventually. - Seize That Parking Spot
Don’t hesitate. You see it, you take it. Ignore the dirty looks—those are the expressions of jealousy and lost opportunity. - Take the Compliment
No more “oh, it’s nothing!” When someone tells you that you look good today, you say “Thank you, I know” with all the confidence in the world.
In Conclusion: Take What You Deserve (Within Reason)
October 6th is the day to stop overthinking and start taking. The world is full of small victories just waiting to be claimed—so go ahead and grab them (legally). Tomorrow, you can go back to asking nicely, but today? It’s yours.
