Loving kindness towards ourselves doesn’t mean getting rid of anything. Accept yourself as you are, we can still be crazy, angry, jealous and have feelings of unworthiness. That’s what we study, that’s what we come to know with tremendous curiosity and interest.
When we are in the midst of our own confrontations, we need to reach deep within, using the utmost of our abilities to find the power required to overcome our obstacles. By doing so it will give us the confidence and facility to handle future problems.
Life is a competition with everybody and everything. In competition, we want our opponents to be at their best. It’s not that you don’t want to compete, but you want to do it in the spirit of play. In this way you are like a child at play, in harmony with life.
You cannot avoid difficult situations. Remain calm and establish a positive attitude while looking for ways to solve the problem and consider a way how to prevent the situation from worsening. You can always find a way to transform a bad situation into something positive.
