Do the best you can

People say: always be happy, good and happy.

Do the best you can instead.

No one is happy, perfectly good or happy all the time.

Happiness disappears if we ask ourselves if we are happy.

You also feel best if you accept your limitations as part of humanity but do the best you can.

We also become unhappy with expectations of ourselves, others and life which are unrealistic.

Even many of our poorest live in an abundance of shopping that makes it easier to follow society's unrealistic calls for us to feel good and be rational all the time. Psychiatrist Anders Hansen i The dead brain argue that our brain is not used to this abundance. Therefore, the brain has not adapted to enjoy it.

Fun shopping, quick experiences and empty calories are not enough for inner well-being.

I unequal and stressful societies like ours, it is more difficult for more people to feel good physically and mentally.

Accept that the small is ok.

Accept that life is not always fireworks and champagne.

Take a moment, a moment at a time, feel free to trust God (it can help those who believe) and do the best you can.

If there is turmoil in the mind, then sit by yourself for a while and let the storm subside.

We need a regular measure of both physical activity, being outdoors.

We need be with people we feel good.

But sometimes you need to be by yourself and show compassion to yourself.

Most of the time, everything and you are ok.

At least that's how it is.

If you can't change it, the way to harmony is to accept it as it is anyway.

Do the best you can.

You cannot change everything alone.

But if you draw what you think is the right straw, many people often draw the same straw to the stack.

As the Roman philosopher Seneca said, what disturbs your peace of mind really is where you are. Often it is only our brain ghosts that cause it.

Enumerate everything real around you and think carefully if it brings you unhappiness.

Or is it your brain ghosts and your judgment that brings you unhappiness?

We all have a tendency towards ghosting and judgement.

Do the best you can.

Let go of all thoughts as best you can and try to feel okay. If you can't, that's ok and so on.

One day, one moment at a time.
