‘He who is contented is rich.’ ~Lao Tzu Post written by Leo Babauta. There has been little in my life that has made as much an impact as learning to be content — with my life, where I am, what I’m doing, what I have, who I’m with, who I am. This little trick changes [...]

by Leo

Why We Overplan

Here is your Thursday STORY on: ADAPTING TO CHANGE: Adapting to change as I mention most weeks is about the fear of a 'What If' moment. As we know a WHAT IF is an ILLUSION, so what you are fearing is only an illusion. Most fear is about WHAT IF's. If we could only see how peculiar that fear actually is, we may have a route to overcome it. Another strong factor in amplifying fear is the tone in which we describe it. If you immediately respond to a situation and call it a problem, then sub-consciously you are dealing with a difficult situation. If you change that habit from calling something a problem to calling it a challenge, then life is sweeter as you can fire yourself up easier to deal with a challenge. Today's material is more of an excerpt from a book or a speech. The author is unknown, so it is difficult to attribute it to a particular occasion, but the words are strong enough to get the message across. END YOUR DIFFICULTIES Will today be a difficult day for you? That depends on whether or not you decide to make it one. Just about anything can be difficult when you make the active decision to consider it so. We often assume that things such as focused effort, discipline, commitment, and persistence are difficult, and as such are to be avoided if at all possible. Yet that is just an opinion. When you think about it, "difficult" and "easy" are very arbitrary terms. Thinking of something as difficult, just makes it that much more difficult. So what's the purpose of it? Imagine what would happen if instead of thinking, "This is hard work and I can just barely tolerate it, " you thought "This is necessary work and I'm thankful that I'm able to do it." Making judgments about whether something is difficult or easy doesn't contribute anything to the level of accomplishment. Stop categorizing tasks as difficult and you'll no longer have to do anything difficult. Just do what needs to be done and truly enjoy the fulfilling road to achievement.

treatment for borderline personality disorder and Cyclothymia? Please please help...please?
Are these similar disorders? Are they treated the same? What are medications given for these? You see, I have been diagnised with Generalized Anxiety Disorder, but the SSRIs were making me worse. Now the P doctor thinks I may have Cyclothymia and is talking about Rxing Lamictal for me. I have been researching and I have come across Borderline Personality Disorder and that really fits me :( If I take the Lamictal will that help me no matter which one I have? I have the irrational fears of being abandoned, and relationship troubles characterized in BPD. I also have rapid mood swings. I am becoming a mess and I need to stop this. I am kinda afraid to tell my P doctor that I think I might have Borderline Personality Disorder because she gives me the feeling that I am trying to Dx myself, which I am not, really, I just know that the Generalized Anxiety Disorder treatments do not see m to be helping all of my symptoms. Please help? Will Lamictal work for Borderline Personality Disorder? I am 27 years old.
