This quote has really helped me. When I added it as my email signature a few people responded asking if it was specifically for them.
I think many people can relate to this idea. For me, I have been plagued with a real fighter in my mind. I refer to it as my "lawyer mind" or "great debater".
When I fight things - my feelings - my situations - my thoughts - things out of my control, they will persist. When I am simply paying attention, acknowledging life, thoughts, obsessions - not resist them and have a compassionate attitude towards and around these things....I simply do better.
We believe what we tell ourselves; we are constantly attracting more like thoughts...more like behaviors...more like outcomes or consequences. When I get "caught up" in resisting things, it has certainly proven (in my life) to persist.
Today, I will try and stop fighting. I will try and have little judgement, greater acceptance and patience.
