Really Useful Therapy Podcast / Awareness Is Everything / Season 1 Episode 3

Changing our focus can bring different meaning to previous and present experiences.  If we live life with a belief and a set of expectations that we will be "happy" if things go the way we want, we have already set up a metric for success we have no control over.  We can hope things turn out a certain way, but as we all know, there are no guarantees.  Nurturing an attitude or stance toward life that invites flexibility in what we decide to be aware of gives us a better foundation on which to build emotional wellness.
