Here’s the best advice I can give myself and my people

How many times, when you have a problem, you keep bearing down on it and trying to figure it out…

We all do it and yet it is a futile task.

There isn’t anything there to figure out.

Never can be an answer in trying to figure it out.

Because new insight is the answer.

And all we do by trying to figure it out is we keep our head cluttered with all this other stuff that’s not allowing new insight to come up.

Our thinking is holding down wisdom from popping up to the surface.

How different is it trying to figure it out from forgetting it?

Could there be two more diametrically opposed things than trying to figure it out and forgetting it?

And by forgetting it I mean taking it off our minds and going about our business.

Going for a walk. Stop engaging with it for a while.

And when our minds clear on their own, we see something new…

And in some cases, the problem is not there any more.

It was never a real problem…

Much love, Angelos
