Almost unbelievable...

but I've found the way.

 

"So easy it seemed once found,

which yet unfound most would have thought impossible."

-John Milton (1608-1674)

​

 Let me tell you about my everyday life

and the problems that I no longer have

I consistently keep 28 promises to myself every weekday, including daily planning before 7am, exercise, and emptying my email inbox.

     But without self-discipline or perseverance.

 

I never procrastinate on starting something I need to start.

     But without pushing myself.

 

I keep working at tasks and goals tirelessly without getting frustrated.

     But without patience.

 

I am persistent in eating super healthfully.

     But rarely depriving myself.

 

I quit or fail at many of the things I start.

     But without discouragement or self-criticism.

​

It wasn’t always this way for me.
 

I’m up to some important things in my life.

     But without stress.

​

My life has a fair amount of routine.

     But without boredom.

​

My life has many of the uncertainties and risks as the lives of others do.

     But without worry or anxiety.

​

I never feel betrayed or taken advantage of by others.

     Because I keep good boundaries and I manage my expectations.

     Therefore, I never have to forgive others (because there is nothing to forgive).

​

I am quite patient with others.

     Because I never feel I am wasting my time.

​

It wasn’t always this way for me.

​

Others often see me as generous.

     Because I find ways to give to others selfishly.

​

I rarely feel defensive.

     Because I know that I have nothing to defend.

​

I am open and self-expressed with others and I am never lonely.

     Because I’ve made friends with my fear that others may disapprove of me or reject me.

​

I am confident I can resolve almost any conflict with others.

     Because I believe that our self-interests can be complementary.

​

In each year, starting in 2015 I have hosted about two hundred soirées in my home, with a total of more than six hundred strangers as my guests per year, savoring snacks and conversation together.

     Because I know that life is my playground

     and everyone is my playmate or potential playmate.

​

​

It wasn’t always this way for me.

Does any of this interest you?

If so, continue. 

I'll show you how you can have it too.
