Mindfulness Too

When we are in the midst of chaos, let go of the need to control it. Be awash in it, experience it in that moment, try not to control the outcome but deal with the flow as it comes.

·         We stop setting goals, and instead do what excites us.
·         We stop planning, and just do.
·         We stop looking at the future, and live in the moment.
·         We stop trying to control others, and focus instead on being kind to them.
·         We learn that trusting our values is more important to taking action than desiring and striving for certain outcomes.
·         We take each step lightly, with balance, in the moment, guided by those values and what we’re passionate about … rather than trying to plan the next 1,000 steps and where we’ll end up.
·         We learn to accept the world as it is, rather than being annoyed with it, stressed by it, mad at it, despaired by it, or trying to change it into what we want it to be.

·         We are never disappointed with how things turn out, because we never expected anything — we just accept what comes.
