The Logic of Acceptance

Acceptance is a major life changing perspective and can be used as a tool to dramatically increase the value of your life right now. Regardless of your views on life, religion, science, philosophy, cultures, politics, or any other possible topic, you have almost no choice but to agree to the logic of acceptance. Check it out.

positive + positive = positive (+ and + = +)
Say yes to the yes...... in your perspective and you will enjoy life.

negative + negative = positive ( - and - = +)
Say no to the no...... in your perspective and you will enjoy life.

This is allowance of life situations. This is acceptance. This is adaptation. This is the root of happiness.

positive + negative = negative (+ and - = -)
Say yes to the no...... and in life you will feel pain or stress.

negative + positive = negative (- and + = -)
Say no to the yes...... and in life you will feel pain or stress.

From the teachings of Buddha to your nearest psychologist, it is agreed that the key to peace and happiness in life is to be in acceptance and not resistance to what is. Suffering is indeed a state of mind; and if you can change your mind (train your mind), then you can change your life experience.

This logic is true, mathematically, philosophically, and most importantly, it is true to your experience of life.

Easier said than done. We (I) need to have positive tools to keep me open to adapting 2 what is. Posts like these are a great reminder. It is in the effort applied and then grace will ultimately come to be in acceptance or adapting mode.

Blessings

C.Om, what an energy being becomes during a physical lifetime is unrelated to how he is born. To bring self-awareness to bear on your thoughts and actions is what makes every experience meaningful. Nothing is useless. Your level or degree of awareness shapes perception, progress and everything.

Thanks Mark. And what we focus on expands! The logic is all there.

True indeed. The only effort involved is to make the decision to be in acceptance on a constant basis. The effort is in remembering to remember.

True indeed Rachel. However we receive and interpret anyone else is still a reflection of us.

Thanks for coming by.
