STOP BEING A PAIN IN THE ASS

House burns down, house burns down.  Lost job, lost job.  Kid dies, kid dies.  Rains on your picnic, rains on your picnic.  Wife ran off, get a dog. Accident, injury, death, and you’re still OK.

If you are not OK with what has happened, will happen, or is happening, your mind is human.  And every human knows its mind is nuts.  Mind your mind.  Train your mind to always be OK.  The beneficial upside of training your mind to be OK no matter what happens are many, and the debilitating downside of not being OK are legion and deadly.

Go ahead, have physical, mental, emotional identities, attachments, entanglements with your needs, wants, desires, people, places, and thing but DON’T set your heart on outcomes.  Be carefree.  Don’t care what the outcome is.  Be indifferent.  Accept whatever the out come is.  Be OK with every outcome.  Enjoy living under a bridge, losing your fortune, health, sleeping cold and dying infamously old and ugly and getting buried in potter’s field or the famous homeless cemetery.  Just stop giving shit.  

Always do what you must that appears in front of you.  Always do what you are most passionate about, most interested in–Whatever sparks your joy–and always do your best for the joy of doing your best, and don’t give a flying rats ass about the outcome.  IF YOU DON’T CARE ABOUT OUTCOMES, YOU LITERALLY WILL ENJOY ALL THAT IS LIFE, WHATEVER HAPPENS TO YOU.

Caring about outcomes is pure insanity.  You are not in charge of outcomes.  Your have no power to alter outcomes.  They are what they are.  They were what they were, and they will be what they will be.  TRUE INSANITY IS TO CARE ABOUT OUTCOMES.  EVEN TRUER INSANITY IS TO KICK A FLAT TIRE, THROW YOUR TOOLS OFF A CLIFF, AND JUMP AFTER THEM HOPING TO GRAB THEM BEFORE THEY HIT THE GROUND.

Work on controlling your body, mind, and emotions.  Body mind emotions are yours, but you are not your body, mind, emotions.  You have a body, mind, emotions.  You have a hat.  You wear a hat.  You are not your hat.  You own a car.  You are not the car.  You ride around in a body, mind, emotions.  If you have an ugly car, better luck next time.

TRAIN YOUR MIND TO HAVE A GOOD TIME.
TRAIN YOUR MIND TO BE OK ALL DAY.

If your mind has personal problems with life and is not OK, you’re lucky.  You now have something to do besides be a pain in everyone’s ass.
