The title says everything we need to get the most out of life. We want to be rich, own a beach house, and have tons of good friends, health, spiritual connection and life purpose. We want the life of our dreams, right? What's the secret? Here it is: Forget about how you will get to the dream life, just do your best all the time and let the rest go.
Life has a powerful flow or force that we are part of but often we are painfully unaware of it. I am speaking of the DNA of life that we and the universe are made of. Nothing is ever static. As we live in this world, the only thing we have 100% control over is our selves: our feelings, efforts, intentions, thoughts, actions and choices.
We cannot force our will on others, at least not in lasting ways. When we try, we feel drained, worn out, crabby, alone and angry. That's tons of fun. Unconsciously going against "life's flow" will do that to you every time. Life's choices and challenges are there for us to learn and grow. Most of our troubles come from attempting to manage things and people we cannot control.
