Choose Yourselfby Parker on TwosEvery time you say yes to something you don't want to do, you will resent people, you will do a bad job, you will have less energy for the things you were doing a good job on, you will make less money, and yet another small percentage of your life will be used up, burned up, a smoke signal to the future saying, "I did it again."The only real fire to cultivate is the fire inside of you. Nothing external will cultivate it. The greater your internal fire is, the more people will want itEvery time you say yes to something you don't want, your fire starts to go away. You will get burned outAll you need to do to live longer is to constantly make sure you are doing everything you can to protect your heart and the blood that flows through it. This is a function of diet, exercise, sleep and other things. If the heart gets sick, you dieTake care of your physical body. The shell that we must take care of to live. It houses everything we doTake care of the emotional body. Surround yourself with only positive people who inspire you. This way you can learn to be positive. Be a beacon to those around youYou can't be beautiful unless you get rid of the ugliness inside. People become crappy people not because of who they are, but because they are crapping inside of youCome up with 10 ideas a dayTake care of your spiritual body. Most people obsess on regrets in their past or anxieties in their future. I this "time traveling." The past and future doesn't exist. They are memories and speculation, neither of which you have any control over. You don't need to time travel anymore. You can live right nowWhen you surrender and accept the beautiful stillness around you, when you give up all thoughts of the past, all worries and anxieties of the future, when you surround yourself with similarly positive people, when you tame the mind, when you keep healthy, there is zero chance of burrnout
