Enjoy The Present Moment (Part 4)

It is also important to keep a balanced mind, while we are working on something. Anger, aggression, ego, or greed can create an imbalance in our thoughts. When we experience being ourselves and are at ease with life, we feel the energy to adventure into anything that’s possible. If we are able to balance effort with ease, we are still moving towards our goals and with an equal amount of aspiration, but at the same time, appreciating the flow of life with it.

➤When we are able to realize that it is ultimately virtues like joy, freedom, and happiness that are important for us, these virtues act as a compass to help us direct our efforts toward our goals with more peace and composure. Being in touch with our original values and positive feelings in every situation helps us in making correct life decisions.

Our health, inner well-being, and our own definition of success are more important than any job, salary, degree, or anyone else’s opinion about us. We can, therefore, consciously create a situation of peace and happiness, where the rising tide of expectation is controlled. We are then no longer troubled by unfulfilled needs and even the most ordinary experiences become enjoyable.
