Focus: Be Lighthearted!
Today, try not to take life so seriously! When you are faced with small and minor challenges, don’t let them get you down. Take a "laugh it off" attitude. Oftentimes when we are consumed by our ego-mind, we will let tiny things like spilling a coffee, or missing a green light completely ruin our day and send us spiralling into negative thought patterns which in turn bring us more negativity. Bring a level of acceptance to the moment, and recognize that in the grand scope of things, it doesn’t even matter! When you start to see the minor things that you stress about, you begin to see the humor in it–"I can’t believe I used to let something that small ruin my day!" And in truth, you really never have real reason to let your day be "ruined." Take responsibility for your thoughts and emotions and govern them, instead of allowing them to govern you. There is no situation or circumstance which is worth forfeiting your peace and happiness!

Kudos Benjamin! Sometimes the best thing you can do is take a deep breathe and laugh. Even if you are faking it, it often just takes over, and if it doesn't, at least you've gotten some extra oxygen so you can think clearer! Humor is good. I love the way little kids find humor in so much, and reconnecting with the kid within can create lightness in your being. Try thinking their way…it doesn't matter. best to you, Jas
