"RELAX, YOU ARE NOT THE DOER"
What is stress?
Stress is the tension between this moment and your mental image of how this moment 'should be'.
Stress is your narrow focus on a mental list of 'things to do', the imaginary burden of 'all the things that haven't been done yet'.
Stress always involves future-thinking, a forgetting of your true Ground - this moment, here, now.
When your focus shifts from what is NOT present, to what IS present, from 'lack' to what is abundantly here, and instead of trying to complete a list of a thousand things, you simply do the next thing, the one thing that presents itself now, with your full attention and passion and presence, lists get completed effortlessly - and even if they don't, creative solutions are found, without stress.
Relax. You are not the doer.
- Jeff Foster
