No Longer A Slave To Success

“The path to mastery is becoming detached to the outcomes of life’s events.” R.Sharma

When you try to force something to happen, you’re missing what IS happening. Sometimes the best things in life are unfolding right in front of us. Yet we miss them because we’re focused on what “WE” want out of the situation instead of perhaps what is being offered right in front of us.

Often I try to force things that I think “Should Be” into existence. When they don’t happen I feel let down because I was attached to the outcome and only saw the process as a means to an end. When the process “IS” as enjoyable as the desired outcome, then regardless of what happens in the end, the whole thing was fun.
