Have you seen that wonderful meme running around the Internet called, #chillhomie?
To overcome life's daily trials, you must turn to your inner calm.
Sure your family and friends can offer helping hand or a shoulder to cry on.
However, your final hope, and your strongest bet will always be your own resolve.
Take six seconds right now. From your nose, breathe into your belly for 1, 2, 3...
Now use your belly to push the air back out. Ahhhh... Better already.
Your own ability to rise up against life's odds and actively seek solutions, instead of wallowing in your frustrations means the difference between a life well-lived or a life squandered.
Build up your fortitude each day with mindful awareness of the bigger picture of your life's goals.
There's a growing trend where people are now more insecure, defensive, hot-headed, easily-offended, and quick-to-judge than ever.
When someone challenges our opinions or values, we feel under attack. Then we reciprocate with the same type of negative energy.
And this cycle continues on and on.
If you build up your inner strength, self-control, and patience each day, this cycle of negativity can't take root.
Just as I talk about getting on the upward pleasure spiral instead of letting your sex life spiral down the drain, I ask you to also let go of your judgements, your victimhood, your anger and resentment. And begin to live in the present moment and enjoy the gift of life today.
When the world hands you a bad day, realize the lessons and realizations you've made during the whole experience. There are bound to be a few.
When your partner's opinions or actions trigger you, don't act in anger or frustration. Instead, find out why. Maybe there was something you overlooked? Maybe there was a miscommunication?
So much drama in the world, and in our personal lives today happen because we are quick to react in anger, frustration, hate, and even fear instead of looking to our inner strength to guide us into making the right decisions that benefit everybody involved.
Bring your loving heart to the day.
And starting today, if you haven't been doing so already, take the time to build up and seek the wisdom of your inner strength before making rash decisions.
I guarantee your life is going to be much better.
Chill Homie,
Susan
