That Space Is Everything

I shared this quote on Be Less Crazy's Facebook page over the long weekend, and I wanted to make sure to post it here, too, because it basically encapsulates everything I'm thinking about/trying to do:

It's funny, because just before seeing this on Facebook, I'd been watching this video from Dr. Mike Evans about dealing with stress ... and he focuses on this quote, too, in the context of squashing stress and improving your life by changing the way you think.

It's not The Secret-style magical thinking; it's just cultivating some quiet and space in your mind so that you can choose what you're going to do instead of just acting out whatever bullshit patterns you may have been indoctrinated with.

It comes down to this: the bigger the space you can cultivate in your mind, the bigger the freedom you will experience in your life.
