I Just Have Lots To Do...

9/20/2019

 
"I'm not Stressed... I just have lots to do today..."

That's what I said to Jasmine before I went into her meditation session at Younion this morning when she asked if everything was alright because I looked a little stressed.

​I was very close to not doing the session because of what's on my plate today but that question was what I needed to hear. If she could see it in my face, then I needed to do something about it. It reminded me of this proverb and something that I say often:
“If you don’t have time to meditate for an hour everyday, you should meditate for two hours.”
​-- Zen proverb
But what is stress, really?

It's self induced pressure.

The only person who can make me stressed is myself. I have the freedom to choose how I want to feel. I have the freedom to choose what I want to focus on in each moment.

If I choose to focus on all the stuff I "have" to do or "should" be doing, I will likely stress myself out. In fact, I feel my stomach starting to turn just as I right that.

However, if I focus on the task at hand, which is writing this blog right now, I feel great! Knowing that it's an outlet I need and knowing that it may help one person makes me feel good.

When you are in the NOW, you will never be stressed.
