Does shit constantly seem to be happening to you. It's almost like your life is Soap Opera? Lots and lots of drama. Or does your life seem calm and steady. Look around in your life. Where is it the most chaotic and start there. If it's in your work environment, see if you can find a different position with your company or look for a more positive work environment if that possible. If it's relationships in your life. Start to do an inventory of whose on your side or against you. This doesn't mean that your friends or family members can't be real with you.
Once you start to make even little changes, you should start to see a difference. Pay attention to the changes in your life. Sometimes it can be that your in the wrong type of work or surrounded by the wrong type of people in your life. Sometimes we need to make changes in ourselves. So find out what you like or don't like in your life or about yourself.
If you just love chaos and that's who you are! Then own it! Sometimes it's about facing the things we don't like about ourselves head on. I call this shadow work. This is not about judging the things we don't like. If their changeable than fine. If their not, it's about how do you embrace that part of yourself. The more you try to deny that part of yourself the more that it will surface. Sort of like a child having a temper tantrum. That's why it's a good idea to let that part of yourself out to play more often in a safe way. This way that little gremlin or yourself doesn't come out at the worst possible moment. Think of this as damage control! LOL!
If you have calmness in your life an it's just flowing and having each step line up with the next step. Than congratulations, you living the dream and life is working with you! The objective is to make your life easier not torture. It should not feel like your moving through quick sand. So have yourself the very best life your capable of having!

Finding Your Balance
I am writing this, because so many people have very chaotic lives. They run, run, run . . . They have no idea who they are any more. They chasing money so much to make ends meet. When I look at whats going on. It almost seems like we're stuck in the 1950's with the mentality. The discrimination against anyone that thinks outside of the box.
The technology that we have today is not making peoples lives easier. It's making their lives crazier. The commercials on TV are working very hard to sell you on the craziness being efficient. When its anything but. Instead of people taking time to talk to the people right in front of them. They are texting or chasing the latest app. or game.
These people are not living their lives, they are simply existing to make money and pay bills. Its actually more like a robot existence. These people are over worked and stressed out. Instead of using a vacation to relax people are working on things that they can't get done in their normal life.
One by one these people start to drop out of society as their stress level gets to such a point that they can't handle it any more. Either they lose their job, as their employer looks at them as being disposable.
Some will try to enter the rat race again only to fail multiple times. Others will try to follow their interests to create new lives for themselves. They will find that they are more satisfied and less stressed out. They will find that money starts chasing them now. They will be very surprised at how little effort is required.
They are starting to appreciate time with their family or friends more. Life is finally calming down. They are looking at their phones less; actually enjoying time by themselves just thinking and feeling. Some people will find their bliss in exercise and making their bodies more healthy. Others will find it in nature and listening to the musical chorus of the bugs and birds all around them. It's always amazed me that people don't take enough time to smell the change of the seasons.
For those of us that are workaholics, learning how to play will feel like something forbidden. It is through play and creativity that we learn new things and how to have more fun in our lives. So when will you start taking time to start living your life instead of just existing?
