I’ve started wondering if we make life unnecessarily complicated
The more I practise and observe myself, the more I notice how much energy can go into trying to fix things that aren’t actually problems.
A thought comes. I analyse it.
An emotion comes. I analyse that too.
Something happens. I immediately want to understand why it happened and what it means.
Sometimes I feel the better thing is simply to notice what is happening without immediately turning it into a project.
I don’t always manage it, obviously. 😄
But I’ve found that even noticing this tendency changes something.
Does anyone else find themselves doing this — constantly trying to understand an experience instead of just experiencing it?
