I’m in my office at the moment. This morning I’ve planned next week, had multiple meetings and worked on some strategic moves for my business.
Ernie, my staffy, has been lying on my couch the whole time. Mostly asleep, sometimes looking at me.
He’s very happy, and way less busy than me!
Perhaps we make a lot of stuff up, to create work so that we feel valuable.
Perhaps we could be more like Ernie.
Perhaps I should sleep more on my couch!
Our lives are filled with paths that we have seduced ourselves into believing are impossible for us to take.
A while ago I encouraged my daughter Zara not to listen to a friend who wanted her to do something that she didn’t feel good about.
When we focus on a past that we don’t like, we are living in a state where we are hoping an imaginary future will heal a non-existent past.
Recently I was in a situation that wasn’t what I wanted, but there wasn’t anything I could do to change it.
If you fill up every area of your life with little regard for the quality of what you’re filling it with, there’s not much room left.
