surrender to the flow of the universe i've learned to balance the "type A/go-getter" energy with with a zen mentality. balancing assertion with acceptance if it is meant to be, it will be the path of least resistance is not necessarily the easiest one; it is simply the one that gives you most meaning, fulfilment and energy as one wise teacher told me early on in my life, focus on conserving your energy because if you want to get far you'll need it for the times that matter animals rest for 80-90% of the day, to be explosive in that 10% of the time they need to hunt don't expend energy carelessly in everything that comes your way; be selective money is only powerful if it buys you the time and freedom to decide when to engage, and to truly surrender to the flow of life things should feel like they are flowing and you should pay attention to intuition as much as to the rational mind all too many times we try to force things out of anxiety, insecurity and ego i believe that if you are doing the things that give you the most meaning, it will feel like you're in the flow that doesn't mean it will always be easy or effortless no one is born great, you work your way to becoming great but if you're not having fun, it won't flow, and if it doesn't flow you will never become great because there is someone else out there doing the same thing feeling in the flow be like water
