BIG ideas.
Don't Argue with Reality by Byron Katie
"I realized that it's insane to oppose it. When I argue with reality, I lose—but only 100% of the time." ~ Byron Katie from Loving What Is
Guess what?
What's happening is happening and no amount of wishing on your end is going to make it any different in that moment. So, why not take a deep breath and reflect on the following: "How do I know that the wind should blow? It's blowing!"
DO NOT argue with reality. You'll lose. But only 100% of the time. :)
