Learn The Magic of Non-attachment

The first time I’ve heard this advice is from the book of “Happiness In A Nutshell” by Andrew Mathews says about;

The moment you get too attached to things, people, money … you screw it up!

This book “Don’t Worry Make, Make Money” tells about what happens when you attach yourself to nothing. It shows that non attachment gives freedom and a win-win situation whatever the outcome of your doing.

My personal experience on making myself nonattached is like offering or giving free services. Whatever the outcome of my services will never be a failure because I did give all my best but when I satisfied my customer that’s the real good story.

What about if commitment is concerns? It does not mean that non-attachment is not making a commitment. Doing this kind of tricks has the same goals with commitment and that is to make things delivered. It’s the way how you do it and make it.

Give, Give, Give

I understand the importance of giving when you feel good of doing it. You feel bad when you give not wholeheartedly and it makes me feels a part of me is taken. When some part of you is taken definitely you feel incomplete and being incomplete is really bad. But when you give wholeheartedly noting in the part will be missing and you will feel the joy completely as you give.

When somebody borrowed something to me, I assume that I already give it and expect never to return or I will never let them borrow. It’s my fault if they can give it back because it let them borrowed. Hoping them the return the favor will only gives you bad mood, but recognizing the big help you give can make you proud of what you did.

The old books says that when you give it will return a hundreds folds, just give and you will receive. Be careful of what you give, good and bad things must be consider. You cannot expect good things if you give a bad things.

Remember that the journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step

This phrase always been to my mind since I was a nine years old. I saw this line on a notebook cover and love to read it. Since then I am thinking of baby’s step as I interpret to myself. Everything here on earth has a beginning.

I start blogging this book and I don’t know when I’ll be finished. What I have as of the moment is the vision that I can learn along the way and gain afterwards. Thinking of what lies ahead is a first step of creations. Things start to process when you think of it, when the universe is fit to it, it will be done.

Take the first step and there will be next. Soon enough, just don’t quit and your goals will be fulfill.
