Thought of the Day: Don’t Just Do Something



Something is going wrong, it looks like there is a disaster in the making, and chaos is emerging fast. In the West we say, “Don’t just sit there, do something!” In the East they say, “Don’t just do something, sit there!”
Now why is this? Intuitively we know that unless it’s a life threatening situation, wisdom lies in the Eastern approach, because sitting still in body and mind, even if only for a moment, allows us to discern the right thing to do.
It is the difference between reacting and responding. It allows new intuitions to overcome old instincts. Watch for such opportunities today.
