Let go now

I started reading my old book "Let go now" by Karen Casey. This is an interesting book that talks about managing human relationships. Some key things it conveys while dealing with difference of opinions, relationships, breakups offer good insights. Some key notes are

"Cultivate the willingness to let go things that you can't control"
 
"By trying to focus on old things we miss our opportunities to explore new directions"
 
"Follow healthy detached behavior"
 
"Watch the events unfold, get involved only when you feel you are part of the journey"
 
"We are in charge of ourselves, no one else is. The freedom that accompanies this realization will life out spirits"

"Keep a mental note, I will step away from an experience that isn't mine to control will fill me with a sense of empowerment. What a great opportunity this will be today"


"Be peaceful rather than being right,  But with practice it will become preferred choice"


"Hostage will always try to escape, Detachment means taking no hostages"

Make the best out of today, Learn something new, Talk and meet new people, new experiences in life. Today make someone else happy with your words, deeds and actions.
Be nice to yourself and others.

Keep going!!!

Rules for Happiness

Good Notes

  • Happiness has nothing to do with job, color, weight, location
  • Meaningful friendship makes a lot of difference
  • Conscious vs Unconscious mind
Ideas
  • Think about ideas and content freely - with the deadline far away (No pressure on deadline, free minded thinking)
  • Traveling to new places
  • Using a wide variety of tools and techniques (Don't be struck in front of your computer)
  • Working on projects that matter to me (Content close to heart)
  • Getting feedback from people who see our work (Visible impact)
  • Having things come back from the printer done well(Having end results)
  • Designing a project that feels partly brand new and partly similar



Be Happy!!

People and Values

Some educated people are morally corrupt. Some people fool others with relative perspective, Everything is relative. Morality has nothing to do with relative perspective. Anything that we don't want us to face we should not do the same for others. Educated people I have observed lacking values, ethics, morality. This again proves education has nothing to do with morality or conscience. Trust people by their character not by words, not by education, not by profession.

Keep moving forward no matter what pulls you down.
