Life is Difficult. How to Handle it...
This weeks video is inspired by a book: The Road Less Travelled, by M. Scott Peck. http://amzn.to/2iBiMjQ
The book begins with the statement "Life is difficult". It is our failure to understand this, believing that my life should be easy and problem-free is the root of suffering. Life is not meant to be easy, and is a series of problems which can either be handled or ignored.
Discipline is required to solve life’s problems rather than ignore them. Most people avoid the pain of solving their problems.
In The Road Less Traveled Peck describes 4 Aspects of Discipline:
Delaying gratification: Sacrificing present comfort for future gains.
Acceptance of responsibility: Accepting responsibility for one's own decisions.
Dedication to truth: Honesty, both in word and deed.
Balancing: Handling conflicting requirements. Scott Peck writes of an important skill to prioritize between different requirements – bracketing.
