The thing that you’re worried about today… Will it really matter in 5 years time?
Most of the things that upset or worry us are short lived. So if you keep a long term mindset, you can quickly sift through what is worth your attention now, vs. the things you need to quickly let go and move on from.
5 by 5 rule: If it’s not gonna matter in 5 years… don’t spend more than 5 minutes being upset about it.
Have a wicked day!

Internet is back up this morning, and I’ve got more speed than I know what to do with!!
This is a very useful tip! I try to stick to it. I first saw this recommendation, it seems, in the book by B. Tracy. It’s simple and effective. Unfortunately, I don’t always succeed)))
Always easier said than done! 🙂 I tried to find the origin of who said this first, it’s difficult because so many legends have referred to it. Great advice regardless! Have a great weekend Illia!
Hi Joel,
Well said. Life is short. It makes sense to be happy most of the time in life.

🙂 yes life’s too short to be wishing you were someone else, or another version of yourself.
Hi,
Totally agree. Be oneself. It is more unique and at ease as per my perspective.
