Alex, I'll take 15% Period ".", please. (In my Jeopardy voice to Alex Trebak - RIP). What am I talking about?
It is simple. You worry to much. You overthink. You are to concerned about what's going to happen to you. You would like to believe people are always thinking about what you are doing. They are not!
Therefore, you should not be wasting your energy thinking about them or believing they are thinking about you, or wasting your time - waiting for impeding doom. It’s not going to happen that way. I am sure you can attest to this. Please Read On...
So the proof is in the pudding. I started off with 15%, Period “.” Which means 85% is missing. Simple math. Here's this quick nugget.
Michel de Montaigne was a French author ✍️, philosopher and statesman (1533 - 1592).
So now, I’m about to quote something he said - that’s over 500 years old, but so Present & Relevant. This homeboy (scholar) said: “My life has been filled with terrible misfortune: most of which never happened”. Ummm… read that again. Next, if you will, repeat 15% Period “.”
To close, there was a study conducted that requested subjects write down their worries over an extended period of time - then identify which of the imagined “misfortunes”’ did not happen. Lo and behold - 85% did not occur. (Reference HuffPost.com).
Uncle Sam legally takes more of our income than the 15% of the "it" we should focus on since "it" may actually come to fruition 15% of the time.....So why not just deal within the 15% Period “.”??
Certainly, with today's resources that didn't exist 500 years ago, including MENTAL HEALTH Resources, we all should plan on continuing to live a joyous life 100% of the time - so that 85% has no room here. Join me?Let's do it! 15% Period ".".
That’s it! Just want to keep this thing called #life - SIMPLE! Remember to stay #Positive, #Plugged and #Present.
