If you read pieces like this one (which I do, and have done purposefully for over a year as part of my coaching practice), and you have a reaction to the cautionary language that sounds something like this:

"What hippie-dippie emotional bullshit!"

Take a moment to consider how we were all trained from a very early age to measure and value only those activities which fuel "the economy" or "productivity." We have a visceral reaction to the idea that we're enough, just the way we are, when we love whatever things we love and do whatever things we do that make us happy.

In a big way, everything else is an intrusion. Sometimes useful, sometimes not, but that should be for you to decide. Don't chase any single thing believing that it will "make you happy." Instead, find happiness in what you are and what you have right now, in this very second.

You're doing great.
