To celebrate a simple life

Posted on by Roy Eastham

It is no bad thing to celebrate a simple life
-Bilbo Baggins

When you log into social media and you see everybody flexing

New nails, new cars, new homes, new stocks…
Flex, flex, flex

Everybody just trying to level up, stressing when they can’t keep up, Anxious because they haven’t gained anything to flex on lately

They don’t seem to realise that simply going for a walk in nature or picking up a book and sitting in the garden is very pleasurable, They miss out on the simple things, they miss out on the moments because they are chasing moments instead of living them…

Celebrate a simple life
Its a happy life

Looking back over the years its pretty amazing to see how much one can change

Sometimes that change happens at random through an event or person

Other times its intentional through study, exercise and personal development

A lot of the change over my life was random until the last 3-4 years when I started doing intentional change so this post is a day in the life of how I go about that (in no particular order)

1a &b) Reading and study (sometimes I combine the 2)

This is where a big part of my Personal Development came from, reading books on finance, philosophy, buisness, productivity, health and fitness and everything in between
Or sometimes I just read novels

2) Exercise- do I need to explain the benefits if exercise, feel better, look better, perform better, I exercise often 3-4 times per week

3) walks and dog walks, get out in nature and move often

4) downtime there was a point in my life where it was just work work work l, everyday I never made any time for downtime and I burnt out, got injured and had no social life

So these are just some of the things I do on the daily for intentional change,

What do you do let me know below v

Its acceptable to be a sheep

When its acceptable to be a sheep

We humans have a tendency to overthink about the slightest things

We worry and stress even long after the stressor has gone

What purpose does this serve

None

I was on a walk with my brother the other week and we encountered some sheep

The got spooked a little they froze and stared us out then ran off

Then they proceeded to eat some grass and get on with their lives

This is how we should deal with stress

This is the only time its acceptable to be a sheep
