Rome wasn__ built in a day, but that's because they never used Cosmic Ordering.
The University Student who accessed JoyI once asked several university students at a mindfulness workshop why they were so stressed. Below is a conversation I had with a young student:__hy do you get yourself so stressed out?_ __ecause I have so much work to do in order to pass my masters degree_, replied the student.__s the degree important to you?___f course it__ important. If I pass, I__l have the chance to work for a law firm and eventually become a junior partner_.__hy do you want to become a junior partner?___o that I can work my way up the ladder, have more influence and earn a lot of money_. __hy do you want to have a lot of influence and earn a lot of money?_ I asked.__f I have a lot of money and influence, I will have enough financial muscle to provide everything for my future wife and children._ __o you have your own family yet?_ __ot at the moment. I__ single but I want to prepare myself_, the student replied. __o, why do you want a partner and children?_ __ecause, I__l feel complete and satisfied_, the student replied. __o you mean that you will feel happier if you have all of these things?___eah, that__ it! I want to be happy and feel good about myself. I want happiness_. __hy don__ you just decide to be happy right now rather than spending most of your time desperately hoping to find happiness in something that hasn__ happened yet? You can still create your own reality and meet your dream partner but you can start to feel happy now before you meet her_.This conversation helped the student to see the futility of booking appointments in the future to be happy, when he could consciously make that choice in the present moment and also that he would have a much better chance of attracting his dream career and partner if he was vibrating joy in the present moment. The wonderful realization of mindful living is that we do not need an excuse to be happy and serene. Being joyful comes as a result of being mindful. Nothing more is required from us apart from honouring the nowness of life. What a startling revelation!!
