Be Open
The other day, @eventspeaker challenged a bunch of us who all had met at the @steemcreators conference to make a meme and drop it in the comments of his post.
I am not a big meme person. There are times when I see one that I like, but for the most part - let's just say, I am not a fan.
But, if asked and if it is possible, of course, I will try my best.
My good friend duck duck came up with this quote (among a bunch of others).
We must let go of the life we have planned, so as to accept the one that is waiting for us.
Joseph Campbell
After I dropped it, I kept thinking about it.
And it kept speaking to me. I don't know about you, but life hardly ever turns out as planned - at least not for me.
One thing I found is the more I try to control what is happening, the more it is going other than planned.
At this point in my life, I am pretty good with going with the flow and am able and willing to change plans - all the time.
And I recognize how often I encounter people who are so set that it has to go a certain way and use up so much energy being upset if the day, the week, the month, the life, turns out differently than planned.
How does this apply in your life? Does it resonate at all? How do you handle the unexpected?
