To accept or not to accept, that is the question. Nick talks through this idea of acceptance and flowing with the river of life instead of fighting it. When was the last time you decided to accept a situation instead of fighting against it? Did it change the result?
Nick from the Cadre crew talks about learning to flow with the events of your life. One of his favorite expressions is stop clinging to the rocks. Let go as much as possible in every moment. We don't need to do it on our own. We have a community we need to stick together.
Okay. Hello there. How's it going? This is Nick from the Cadre crew, and I wanted to talk to you a little bit today about learning to flow with the events of your life. And so there seems to be, in any given moment, two decisions. One, accept and go with what's happening. Two, don't accept it and go against it. But it can be really difficult, because we're facing thousands of decisions every day, some seemingly big, some seemingly small. I just know that if I can let go and flow as much as possible in that moment, that it's going to be a good thing.
And that's why I think it's so important for tools like the serenity prayer. God, grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change, the courage to change the things I can, and the wisdom to know the difference, because it can be very difficult to know. But I stress again, we don't need to do it on our own. We have a community we need to stick together. And, you know, that can be the Cadre community. That could be your family, your friends, support groups, whatever it is, just. Just don't do it alone and learn how to flow.
One of my favorite expressions is stop clinging to the rocks. It's from this book called illusions by Richard Bach. Stop clinging to the rocks. Let go. Let go as much as possible in every moment, you know? And that's been my mantra, you know, for a number of years. Just let go. Let it flow and see what happens. Hope that helps. Have an awesome day. Talk to you later. Bye.
