Why so serioussss...
Okay this doesn't apply to everything (taxes for instance). But... I believe in the law of attraction and karma. Not heavily, but I think there's a certain degree of balance in this world. You eat and you poop it out. You treat someone nice, you'll be treated nice, etc...
I think Jack 's truth above applies to unideal or negative situations where you may have minimal control of the outcome. Like...
- stressing about an upcoming job interview
- whether your hair looks good right now (see above image)
- if it's going to rain this weekend
- if your flight will be on time
The more 'worry' you transmit to the universe, the more 'worry energy' comes back to you.
Trusting Your Instincts
Actors often refer to letting go and trusting your instincts when the director calls 'action'. Or athletes like Kobe Bryant in a game situation (you can't stress over whether the ball is going in the hoop, you just trust your instinct and believe). So maybe the path to happiness is to trust the universe and let go when you would otherwise fret about something either mundane and/or you have no control over.
