The Small Things - Yoga Lesson

When you place all your focus on the “Big Picture” and reaching an end goal you may find yourself getting annoyed and impatient with all the small things that lead you to your end goal.

Are you happy when you reach the end goal?

Often it is hard to enjoy reaching a goal when you have trained yourself to look at the big picture.  When you train yourself to think “I’ll be happy when…” you may find yourself wondering why you can’t find the happiness you thought you’d achieve by reaching the end result.

Start practicing letting go of the annoyance and impatience with the small steps and notice them for what they are.  The joy is in the journey and the “Small Things” are the journey.

The journey takes many twists and turns.  You never know for sure what is around one of those twists or turns so stay in the here and now and find success and reward in each moment.

It’s all about the small things!
