Learning To Go With The Flow

One of the greatest skills in life is the much-admired ability to glide smoothly through life unaffected while the turbulence of these modern times seems to engulf others.

The key to this to flow with life's current rather than resisting it. Going against the tide of life creates stress, while flowing with it allows you to move forward and remain relaxed. A key part of this means embracing change in our lives, which allows us to roll with life quite easily, as change is inevitable and the very nature of our everyday life.

So how do we 'go with the flow'? By finding the direction of life's rhythm, and going with it rather than against it. Here are a few examples of this:

If your plan for the day doesn't turn out as expected, try going with the new situation instead and create a new plan, rather than resisting change and fighting to keep the old plan alive, which usually only creates stress and no results. (This is quite different, of course, to giving up on your major goals - which is not recommended - this article only relates to day-to-day details).

Yes, even just remaining in the slow lane for a while (in your car), and just following the traffic - rather than battling it and constantly changing lanes and getting flustered - is a good beginning to the philosophy of 'going with the flow'. You may be surprised to find that you get ahead just as quickly as those who constantly change lanes!

Of course it's important to always have a plan - but be flexible and open to changing it depending upon the signals you are getting back. For instance, if a situation constantly brings difficulty, then it may be telling you that there is an easier way to reach the goal, which you may not have looked at yet.

Another way of flowing with life is not to sweat the small stuff - always let go of small issues and move on. This ability allows you the time, space and mental clarity to focus upon the bigger issues in life, and not get caught up in complications.

Controlling only the 'situations you have control over' is also a great stress-reducer - as most things we worry about simply are beyond our control, or things that never happen in the first place! For instance, if your doctors appointment is running an hour late and you have to wait - instead of trying to change an unchangeable situation, go and have a coffee down the road and come back in an hour - who knows, you might have a wonderful brainstorming idea during that hour!

Last but not least, always allow yourself some time and breathing space - don't overbook yourself so much that you are always rushing - space things out a little and pace yourself. Otherwise you wind up feeling off-balance and flustered - take some time between your appointments and make sure you are feeling strong, calm, balanced, and focused upon quality, instead of quantity. And never forget to schedule a little fun into your week! Nothing can replace a good laugh when it comes to stress relief - and there are scientific studies to prove it.

Going with the flow means taking care of your own life-balance, which creates less stress and also better results - so try a little of this in the week ahead, and see if you notice the difference.

"The Mind controls the body, and the mind is unlimited".

The best of success, Craig Townsend
