Emocje / Emotions
Keep a Journal
You’ll get a better idea of which emotions get you down, which pick you up, and which are the most difficult for you to tolerate. Pay careful attention to the people and situations that push your buttons, triggering strong emotions. Describe the emotions you feel each day, and don’t forget to record the physical sensations that accompany the emotions.
Every adult individual is responsible for their own feelings. No one has the power to make you happy or make you sad. If someone behaves a certain way, you then make an interpretation of it, which causes the feeling. So the meanings you make are what cause your feelings.

Surrender
Surrender is something else. If you’ve reached this point, if you’ve said no to all the things you are entitled to say no to, you are ready to surrender.
But not before then.
Surrender means:
You are eating well.
You are sleeping well.
You are taking care of your body.
You are saying no to the foods and drinks and activities that can harm you.
You are saying no to the people who are trying to bring you down.
You are saying no to the stories that people have tried to force you into. You are not marching in the army; you are your own person.
You are saying no to the lies that keep the stories going.
You are saying no to the offers and opportunities that might be second best. You are searching deeply for the real Yes in the opportunities that come to you.
You are saying no to the noise. Finding the silence that is between every word, that is between every breath of air.
All of this allows your creativity to roam free. Your spirit to relax. Your brain to breathe a sigh of relief. Your body to have more energy than ever.
So much relief!
Now …
Surrender.
To whom?
To you.
To the higher part of you.
To the “you” that is wise and knows better.
Do it.
Say yes.
To you.
Our brains don’t care if we are happy. There is only one mission for the brain: replicate the DNA.
When DNA doesn’t replicate, a species becomes extinct. That’s failure. When DNA replicates, a species thrives. That’s success.
And that’s all the brain knows. So we have to get the brain out of the way. We have to trick it or hypnotize it.
Because the pure energy knows what to do, if you trust it.

Giving up
“Okay, you take care of it. You do it all,” where “you” is some higher power, some godlike entity?
That doesn’t work either. If you do nothing, usually nothing happens. This is just a more insidious way of trying to control things. It’s like you are trying to passive-aggressively guilt-trip the universe into providing for you.

We can’t say yes until we experience the deepest No.
Every time you say no in the way you are entitled to, it will help you take a step forward on this road. But the highest No you can say is to everything you once thought was the being known as “you.” Your history, your upbringing, your things, your dramas, your relationships. Those are all your story, and you have to give up control of that story.

Buddha no harm
Let’s call it “Buddha explains the Power of No to his son.”
All he said was this: “Before, during, and after you think, say, or do anything, determine if it will harm someone.”
