Live At A Higher
Level
- Stop Resisting the
Flow –
Flow with the river of life. Unhappiness and stress come from wanting the
situation to be different. Stop resisting and getting upset because things
aren’t different. Accept them as they are. Let go of the desire to change
everything. Find and enjoy the good in every second. Enjoy
the good in the “Now” of your life.
- Detach from the
Drama –
detach yourself from negative situations, circumstances, what is happening.
Handle it the best you can without letting it upset you. It is what it is! As it
is passing, remind yourself that it is an overcoming opportunity. This too shall
pass. Don’t worry or stress about anything.
- Stop Judging,
Criticizing and Complaining - Look at everything as
neither being right or wrong, good or bad. It just is. Start loving everything
and everyone as it is; as they are. Practice this. It is very freeing! It
releases negative energy and stress. Every time you criticize, judge or complain
you move yourself away from the things you want.
- Answer Without
Emotions - This is another way
to reduce your stress and expectation level, and help you stay in a more
positive mindset. Before reacting, take a moment to remove all emotions and see
it as a neutral (neither good nor bad) situation. Then you can respond
calmly instead of reacting in haste.
- Learn to Accept the
Unacceptable - ex: flat tire / house
burned down. It is what it is and another overcoming opportunity. Do not judge
or complain; detach and handle it without getting emotional. Life becomes much
easier and peaceful this way. You have a choice.
