In our modern society, we’re taught to be nice, to be polite, not to rock the boat, not to express our true feelings in moments of dislike, to avoid confrontation like a plague. Why? Because if we do so, we won’t be liked, fit in and accepted. And I luckily never gave much significance to either of those. I don’t mind what others think, that’s their business and it defines them, not me. I also don’t want to fit in, why would why? Into what exactly? And by whose standards? And the only person I need to be accepted by is well… the one that bothers me when I’m being unkind. And that’s me!

And so nice is not what I strive for. Not at the cost of the truth or my own consciousness.
By not playing the game of the society, we give ourselves more room to play on our own vast playground of kindness, honesty, courage, authenticity. That’s freedom. That’s meaningful.
What society so far made us believe and do is quite the opposite. Don’t settle for that. Settle for yourself. Choose kind over nice. The time is now.

Your only job is to find that reason. Usually, it’s not the obvious one we think it is, as we get caught up in our ego led justification of right and wrong. The reason is a hidden gem, sitting in the silence of your mind that waits for you to find it. That silent gem will lead you to your own truth. That part of you that gets compromised so often that most of us don’t even remember anymore who we truly are, what have we become, what moves us…

When things fall apart, it’s not to be experienced as pain and an unwanted obstacle. But rather as a solution to the bigger jigsaw of your own life. Find that truth, accept life’s unfolding and you’ll soon get back to where you belong. Yourself.

I know you have problems that cause pain. You’re hurt and it’s not feeling nice. The good news is that nothing is wrong with having problems. It’s part of life, life will never be perfect for us to enjoy only when it is perfect, and every single living being, I promise you, has them.

However, when we resist the situation, the fact that there is pain and we fill our mind with agitation, anger and aversion about the pain (situation) we are adding another pain. So really, what we are doing, is burden our already painful state with some more pain.
Without judgement on anyone, but can you see how screwed up this is? Can you see how we by choice harm ourselves even more?

That’s called resistance to the situation or pain.

Acceptance, on the other hand, is not (I repeat – is NOT) equal to allowance & agreement. It’s not to say we like the situation that causes our pain.
Acceptance is when we, wholeheartedly, say:
I’m in pain. I don’t like this. But let me stay with this for a short while. What is it that hurts me? And what is it showing me about me and my life lessons? What can I learn? And what can I change? Why and how do I change this?

The solution always comes in the moments of calmness, moments of acceptance.
Stop the panic & cut the drama, and you spared yourself from an additional obstacle to overcome. There is no solution presentable in the state of suffering because we are mentally disillusioned. But it presents itself always and very fast when we clear our mind from the drama.
Drama is your choice. Choose wisely.

The sooner we do become self-aware, the faster our willingness to become the best human being possible, kicks in. This is our responsibility; to become willing to change for better.

The opposite of that is the desire to please others in being inauthentic, trying not to upset others with who we are and what we stand for, trying to fit in, trying to dance according to other people’s drum.

That’s not what we are here for.

This attitude of pleasing others takes you so much further away from your core essence of who are. And there is a reason and purpose for you being YOU.

What others think of you is none of your business. But what you think of you, is to be your entire business. It will breed pure motivation and kind intentions into your mind, it will give you strength and resilience to accept yourself, trusting your why. And this will lead to loving yourself.

Which leads to loving others. Isn’t that worthwhile? Isn’t that how you want to live now and be remembered when you go? If the answer is yes, join our online course or 1:1 coaching on modern Buddhism that awakens your mind and transforms your life with wisdom, compassion and loving kindness.

You’ll help them to get to know you, and you’ll be free of disrespect.
The only price you’ll have to pay for this is that you won’t fit for others as much and you might face some dislikes!! I personally love that little challenge.
What others think of you is none of your business. What you think of yourself should be your main business.

Let’s first try to understand it.

An example from my own life would be to meditate on what brings me suffering. Fear is usually always somewhere in that picture, but one must be honest with him/herself in that meditation to accept fear as part of the experience. The next thing I do is to invite that fear for a cup of tea. Let’s work together on this, I say. What happens then is that the fear starts to change its face and becomes like a kind friend giving me some creative ideas.

Fear is the strongest when I’m getting closer to my authenticity.

And being authentic means being true to who we are, it takes all of our courage to be who we are meant to be even at the cost of being disliked, judged or misunderstood (all very hurtful but living unauthentically is more hurtful in the long run!).

Then my fear and I go hand in hand towards our goal. What we gain with this approach is support from that same fear we tried to run away from towards exactly that for which we need courage.

Can you see how that works? Have you ever tried this approach? To share contact us directly. We teach and inspire so many people around the world on the topic of happiness.

We are so stuck on this roller-coaster of “attraction” towards what we desire & “aversion” from what we want to avoid. That’s Buddhism, ladies and gents… In my work, the #1 reason why people seek support is “worry”. We spend most of our days worrying about something. Most of the time it becomes a repetitive worry. Like an addiction. And when things turn out fine, the next thing you know is we find something new to worry about.

With mindfulness practice we learn how to get back into the driver’s seat and learn what worry and fear really are, we learn how to befriend them so that they cooperate with us & then we transform them into something that would serve us, something that actually will allow us to take a step towards what we do want.
As long as you focus on what you don’t want, that’s where you actually live. Where your mind is, is what your reality looks like.
And worry is not relaxed, creative & attractive. It’s tense, rigid, non-creative & unattractive. Opportunities won’t want to come anywhere close to it…

Trust me. I’ve been a worrier for over 3 decades. When we ditch it, things come to us gradually and in unexpected creative ways that your tense worrying mind has never had an opportunity to even imagine.

Please continue to add to this list.

Please also remind yourself of all those unhappy, unfortunate people and children around the world that are truly suffering from abuse, hunger, wars, danger, addictions, mental illnesses such as hatred, depression, paranoia…
Remind yourself that you’ve gained a previous human life, the only form of life where you can gain wisdom that leads to the end of suffering – enlightenment. Animals can’t get that, plants can’t get that. You can.
Shift your focus on gratitude for the most important things such as having life, that so many of us take for granted each and single day.

Is the unkind person in your life worth your negative karma? Or is it that you can learn about yourself and develop forgiveness and patience because of the unkind person around you?

Think deeply about it. How on Earth would we develop our virtues if not amongst those who challenge us with their unkind actions and words?

You don’t have to tolerate it. Turning into a doormat but you could send compassion whilst detaching yourself from their karma (their doing). That’s the only way to grow in your own wisdom. Just. Think. About. It.

Change is not easy but so isn’t living in pain. It takes courage to commit to a change and to get ourselves out of the mud. But you’ve got it. Courage is not some exclusive bravery saved for the exceptional ones. Courage is to do what your heart knows you’re ought to do in order to be complete and fulfilled. The word courage comes from the Latin word “cor” which means heart!

We all have our hearts, and they all long to live their truth.

So change things. Start somewhere, even if slowly. But commit to that heart. It’s yours and it’s waiting.
