When we're born, we are a clean slate. Pure and guiltless and open to whatever comes our way. But as we grow, impressions are made and lessons are learned. We sooner or later lose that childlike sinlessness and we find that we're adults with realistic expectations and tons of responsibility. Who has time to consider the deeper issues, not to mention change? However, some of us find ourselves in horrendous situations where we're forced to change. You don’t have to go through horrendous experiences to discover inner peace. This book will provide some key steps you can follow so that you can unlock the peaceful side of your self: Kicking Fear And Anxiety To The Curb Among the greatest sources of unhappiness, in my experience, is the trouble we have in accepting things as they are. Without judgment, without wishing for otherwise. When we discover something we don’t like, we wish it could be different — we cry out for something more beneficial. That may be human nature, or maybe it’s something that’s deep-seated in our culture.

The root of the unhappiness isn’t inevitably that we wish things to be different; all the same, it’s that we decided we didn’t like it in the first place. We’ve pronounced it as bad, instead of saying, “It’s not bad or good, it just is.” You ought to expect individuals to mess up, expect things to go differently than you designed, and you should embrace that. It’s too negative to anticipate things will go wrong, people say. However: it’s only negative if you see it as negative. If you gauge it as bad.
