"We do not have any problems, we only think we do." A man said this on a documentary I stumbled upon late at night a few days ago, and it struck a cord with me. I've been thinking about this comment in the back of my mind a lot. And I've decided, at least for me in my life right now, that this is true. And I'm going to give this idea a shot. Not saying that I'm going to take on a "who gives a fuck" attitude, but that I'm going to try and come to terms with the fact that I am in control. I decide how I perceive things. And from there I decide how they effect me, how they make me feel, and ultimately how I will react to obstacles, situations, and the outcome of the choices I've made in my life. How about you? ~ Any thoughts/feelings on the above quote?
You have the right idea. And, Id actually add there is a time and place for saying "I dont really give a fuck'. When you are repeatedly thinking about your work, what if you get fired, what if you lose everything, what if you die alone in a van .... No, Sometimes at a certain point, when it comes to things that really are NOT the essence and important issues in your life then you can just start learning to say 'I dont give a fuck'. When it comes to your family, friends, your character, values, these are the IMPORTANT things. Then you care about those. Dont worry.. just care.
