Are You Willing to Be a Fool?

Are you willing to do whatever it takes to find peace and happiness?

Are you willing to be a fool?

Life brings with it thousands of experiences, both positive and negative. When you come upon difficulties in your life, you have the choice to carry the burden of those difficulties with you or free yourself of the burdens that weigh you down. Becoming a fool means you never hold on to your experiences; you simply go on trusting despite your experiences.

Many of my students and clients have the perception that, because I have practiced The Pause for over 20 years, that I somehow don't ever feel angry, stressed out, sad or upset. I can assure you, I am no different than any of you in this respect. I too feel all of these emotions and have to choose how to deal with them. That is why we call this a "practice"...we are all still working towards peace and happiness in our lives.

I wanted to share with you my thoughts on why I feel being a fool is actually beneficial to each and every one of you. Today's episode of Pause for Power will explain in greater detail how the simple act of becoming a fool can greatly impact your life. I also share my 3 tips for being a fool, which you do not want to miss!

Tell me if you have tried being a fool; letting go of all of your baggage and past experiences and just living purely in the present moment.
