Showing results for "the-wonder" in Personal Development

In this collection of never-before-published teachings by Charlotte Joko Beck, one of the most influential Western-born Zen teachers, she explores our “core beliefs” - the hidden, negative convictions we hold about ourselves that direct our thoughts and behavior and prevent us from experiencing life as it is.

Do you yearn for more meaning, connection, and the ability to respond to life’s curveballs more creatively than reactively?

Imagine that tomorrow you woke up, went out and won the lottery. Now imagine that tomorrow you woke up, went out and lost a limb. Which would make you happier? Amazingly, science suggests that after both of these scenarios, you would most likely return to the same happiness level as before within a relatively short window of time.

Fun is connected to behaviour and habits rather than goals, which means it’s possible to get more fun into your life with intention.
