Life Pro Tips

I recently realised that I have been doing most things unwillingly my whole life. I had a long list of things I didn't really like to do such as studying, working, doing dishes, cleaning, going to certain compulsory social events. Actually most things in my life I didn't like to do very much.

But recently I had an experience where I wouldn't care what the hell I was doing. I would be just fine doing anything. I somehow hit a switch in my mind and I became willing to be anywhere and do anything. Doing any of those things above, helping someone out, talking with anyone about anything. - And I would do it all totally willingly with a smile on my face.

Doing all these activities started to become very enjoyable suddenly, and this is still a reality for me several weeks later. But it's not like it takes some special magic to become like this. I think it's just about realising that whatever you have to do, you might as well do joyfully and willingly. At least, that way it becomes enjoyable for you. Otherwise whatever you have to do becomes a sort of mild torture. Flipping that switch in one's mind is all it takes.

Also, I couldn't believe how productive I became, when there wouldn't be any issues within myself about whatever thing that I was doing. Take away the resistance you have towards the task you're doing, and see that your productivity will increase manifold.

This quote sums it up well for me. Sadhguru:"Anything you do willingly can become a great pleasure and a process of growth for you."
