This makes so much sense! The Elements of Living Lightly from ZenHabits. If you haven’t seen and started reading this blog, I highly recommend you start today. This particular article struck close to home, because it’s how I try to live my life today. Some would say it makes no sense, but in my mind they’d be wrong. I’ve found that by treating different situations like this, it reduces alot of stress, and makes me more relaxed. I’d be interested in your opinion after you read.

I hope you enjoy reading The Elements of Living Lightly:

Today I’m going to suggest a small change in mindset that could change your life.

I won’t keep you in suspense. Here it is: think of nothing that happens as either good or bad. Stop judging, and stop expecting.

It’s a tiny change — all you have to do is say, ‘That wasn’t good or bad, it just happened, it just is.’ It’s tiny, but it takes practice, and amazingly, it can knock you on your ass.

Why? Because with this little change, you will no longer be swayed up and down depending on whether good things or bad things happen to you, whether people (and their actions) are good or bad. You will learn to accept things as they are, and move within that landscape mindfully.

You will no longer expect good things to happen (or bad things), but will just take things as they come, and be content with whatever comes. This means you’ll no longer be disappointed, or unhappy.

Please continue reading this article here, believe me you’ll be glad you did.
