Keep it simple! It’s important to understand that having less is not always a bad thing, rather sometimes it’s better for one to have less in their life and practice cultivating simplicity. Today is not a time to start a lot of new things, however it is a good time for one to undertake one thing that brings them a sense of inner peace; completing that lingering project sitting in the “in” box or catching up on filing. Today is a time to keep it simple and scheduling some quiet time. This allows time for the inner growth to happen. Wealth will come in time if there is sincerity behind what one is doing, and to some extent a level of sacrifice.
One can have cooperative relationships with other people, and all living creatures, thus learning how to coexist with all of nature; achieving a deeper level of understanding of the relationships between the laws of nature and the laws of people; moving away from old habitual tendencies and cultivating new, more beneficial ones. Of course this does not happen over night, there is a period of realizing that there are turning points in one’s life. In the more difficult times and situations, it’s best step back, get a breath of fresh air, and then start again with a newer outlook.
Be careful of blaming others, schedule in quiet time and practice simplicity. The benefits will be inner growth development. Do your best, be kind, and have a wonderful Monday.
