If the rest of your life was going to be like today, would you be happy?
Because the reality is, every day is probably going to be similar…
Knowing this, what if you decided your happiness mattered, and you took steps every day to create habits that led to happiness?
For me those habits are meditation, exercise, sleep, prioritising and connecting with my kids, connecting with Julia, doing meaningful work, and creating a physical environment I enjoy.
Notice that only one of those things is related to physical ‘things’.
What if this is heaven or hell, what if we’re in it already?
What if ‘heaven’ is a choice?
No matter where you look, all ancient wisdom points to one thing…
We don’t always take the straight path. Sometimes we take the long road. Or no road at all.
Recently I’ve been making a conscious effort to say nice things to people.
