Many of the external details of our world show up without us inviting them into our lives. But fighting against the stuff we don’t like only makes it grow in our awareness. It takes more of our time, downgrades our energy and detracts attention from everything that is going well. The remedy to the consequences of focusing on the negative is simple: only direct as much energy as absolutely necessary on what we find displeasing. Not only will we feel better, we’ll be free to spend a greater portion of our energy on…

What we want.
