Life's stress and anxiety come from expecting the world to bend to your preferences. The universe operates on a scale far beyond you, so surrender to what unfolds, focus on what you can control, and find joy in what is rather than demanding it be different.
Chapters
It's not personal. It's literally just life. The reason you're so stressed out and overwhelmed about everything is because you just can't handle life. You want life to be a certain way. You want things to go your way. And when things that pop up that are unforeseen or things happen that you don't want to, we react, we get angry, we get stressed, we get anxious, we get overwhelmed. Why? Because we literally just can't handle life. It's not personal. Life is not out to get you. The universe is 13.8 billion years old. Okay, things are happening. Surrender to the flow of life's events. Focus on what you can control and just enjoy it.
