3728: Our Everloving Quest to Control Our Lives by Leo Babauta of Zen Habits on How to Sit with Uncertainty

Episode 3728: Most of us spend our days trying to create order and comfort, yet life never stays under control for long. Leo Babauta reveals how these attempts only deepen our anxiety and offers a mindful alternative: learning to sit with uncertainty and act from love instead of fear. His perspective invites us to release the endless chase for control and discover freedom in presence. Read along with the original article(s) here: http://zenhabits.net/controller Quotes to ponder: "Almost our entire lives are spent in a quest to gain control, security and comfort in our lives. Unfortunately, we never really get it, so we keep trying, relentlessly." "The basic nature of life is that it is everchanging, uncontrollable. When we think we have stability in life, something comes up to remind us that no, we don’t." "You’ll learn to sit with this feeling of out-of-controlledness, and be OK with it. You’ll learn to trust in this moment, not to lead to an outcome you want (control!), but to turn out just fine." Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
