Thinking Week 4

“Very little is needed to make a happy life; it is all within yourself, in your way of thinking.”

— Marcus Aurelius

Over the past month we have observed thoughts, the negative, the repetitive, the ma or the space between thoughts, even attempting to widen the gap between thoughts.  This week once again we look at another concept of Marcus. His wise observation on thinking tells us, it is within our power to decide to be happy or not. The most interesting part is that there was no internet, cell phones or social media and mankind had the same issues we have today. They had to make the decision, the choice to not think negatively or repeat thoughts. The message is to use your thoughts for a positive purpose, to have a happy life, using the techniques we discussed.
