My "aha" moment !





What the hell is wrong w/ me? What happen to that Cindy who craves changes and love to learn?
Some people are afraid of change b/c changes can be difficult and scary. Change should be looked upon as a good thing; unfortunately many of us prefer the safe unchanging option. I never thought I was one of these people that were afraid of changes. I soon realized that somewhere along the way, I gotten so comfortable w/ life itself that I didn’t accept any changes that came my way nor search for any new changes. All I do is worry or whine about, making excuses for my lazy ass- basically wasting a lot time. I don’t want to be stuck now as I am for the rest of your life.

I know life is change; I need to welcome changes and expect changes. It is bound to happen. Whether good, bad, difficult, destructive, even change in our daily routines. So instead of waiting for changes to happen, I’m going to make the changes happen. I’m not saying it’s going to be easy quick fix. I know I’m going to face challenges but I will not let this paranoia grip my life, I’m going deal with change as it comes.

OK, I know this is weird. My "aha" moment was when I was in the shower 2 months ago, it just hit me that "life isn't as serious as my mind makes it out to be" as Eckhart mentioned in his book. (I still need to find time to read the book.) I had heard all my life, oh it's not that serious but I have never heard it put this way and now this makes so much sense to me. I have a way of making things much more than they are in my head. Everything just clicked that very moment and all I can say is wow! Wow! Can’t believe a book can have such positive outlook. (Don’t take life so seriously. Lighten up. Be easy on yourself. Smile more. Laugh often. =) If not, all I can say F*** it.)

It's contagious... working with people who stress out or complain about every little thing can bring about the same reaction from you. Since my "aha" moment, i care much less about the little things, let alot of stuff go and now i feel so much more positive about everything.

Yes! I agree w/ you. Sometimes the smallest can bother me and stress the hell out of me, mainly b/c I care too much. As I'm letting things go, (little by little) things are so much better. =) Learning to relax more! I guess, the cup is not always half empty but indeed half full. It's amazing what positive thinking can do to one's life.
