I’ve just spent a few blissful days with my man. He left today and will return in a week and a half.
I always learn magical and valuable lessons when we’re together.
What I realise is how much of a control freak I’ve been (largely learnt behaviour!).
Now, I am not saying it is easy to intercept the moments where you lose yourself. No, no. It is very difficult. You have to recognise your shortcomings, which, of course, most don’t want to do.
When I woke up this morning with my man beside me, here’s the conclusion that crystallised in my mind.
What is the result? This simple question can transform your life.
When I behave like this, good things happen and I feel great.
When I behave like that, bad things happen and I feel shit.
Radical simplicity. Yes, it sounds really superficial. Yes, it sounds childish but the modern disease is over-complication. Honestly.
At the heart of the question “what is the result?” is what really matters. How much of what you believe matters is trivial, insignificant, meaningless? Yep, the vast majority of this.
Do you want to be right or do you want to be happy?
What you want to win arguments or have fabulous relationships?
You get to decide BUT you have to lose your ego to have a great life!
