I got a new phone because my other phone was acting up. I tried to use it and realized that it’s locked. I have to pay more money to unlock it.

When I tried to transfer the SIM card, the other phone got f*cked. Now, that phone no longer works. That’s how I ended up phoneless.

I got pissed off because I’ve been wanting to see text messages that I got. I noticed that there’s a sense of loss in me like I’m missing out. I got FOMO (fear of missing out). That anxiety over the desire to feel connected is a problem.

If you didn’t have anyone who will contact you or you had no way to connect with other people, you wouldn’t give a f*ck. Since you want to feel whole by connecting with other people, you feel a loss.

I started noticing my breath. I asked myself, ‘Am I trying to feel better right now?’ I noticed that I was trying to feel better. There was an intensity that it needed to happen.

I had a strong feeling that if it didn’t happen, I would be unhappy. That’s how I felt.

Then I thought what would happen if I stopped trying to feel better for one minute. As soon as I did that, I became more aware.

Stop trying to feel better. Stop trying to understand the world just for 10 seconds. 

Stop trying to give meaning to things for 10 seconds.

You slow down. Your senses become sharper. You become more alert. You feel peace arising from inside and you become present again.

Usually, you’re not present because your mind is controlling you. You’re identifying with your thoughts and you’re trying to feel better by using your mind.

The solution to this is not trying to feel better, but using this instrument called the mind. You’ll notice the weight that’s lifted from you.

When I began doing that, nothing changed on the outside, but my inner state changed. I felt more relaxed, more aware and more accepting.

It felt good.
