Don't compare yourself to Rihanna, be your own person
Sometimes it amazes me how much people get wrapped up in the lives and decisions of others. While I didn't watch the Super Bowl, I read many opinions about the performance of Rihanna , a 34-year-old billionaire. Anyone at her level of success can make whatever decision she thinks is best for her. Often, we compare, contrast, and complain about the decisions that others make but neglect to focus on what we want and the decisions we can make to optimize our lives.
Doing this exact thing is why I tried the Surrender Experiment.

1 年your credentials are astonishing. you must be exhausted. I havent looked into the surrender experiment but it sounds similar to my own practice Ive been developing. I found myself wondering why am I trying to support and coach people in decisions and actions that make no sense, I kept saying you need to raise the bar on the standards in the people in your life. after a lead up of two years, I triggered a change of my own that was so abrupt it didnt settle well with people. come to learn after the fact - no axe needed, as you make the changes those things move away from you like two magnets. its not about what you say as much as what you do and your intention. but I think if its negatively geared its not helpful, so it has to be driven by you purely for you out of love.
