My mom once told me that I come from a long line of ornery people. She didn’t mean it as a compliment.
While my stubbornness has helped me accomplish a lot of wonderful things, sometimes I resist just because I’m in the habit of resisting.
Lately, I’ve been trying to submit more to my instincts—to go with the flow.
I’ll let you know how it goes!
Be the weird you want to see in the world!
Cheers,
Jason
In mindfulness we talk about surrender. Refusing what is gets in the way of living our best lives. That doesn't mean not to act on things that need to change. It means to fully accept reality. You can't effectively simultaneously deny something's existence and change it.
