We Prefer Order And Stability

We Prefer Order And Stability

There’s a big part of us that doesn’t like chaos: we want order and simplicity.

  • When we feel overwhelmed, we might beat ourselves up and try to look for a system to get things under control.
  • When plans don’t go how we hoped they would, we feel like we’re on unsteady ground, and we start criticizing ourselves or feeling like we’re doing things wrong.

Relaxing In The Middle Of Chaos

If we could do that:

  • We would be Ok with the feeling of overwhelm, and not need to panic or feel bad.
  • We would simply take the next step and focus on one thing at a time.
  • We could put our work out into the world and accept the fact that we will be judged.
  • We could be with someone’s upsetness, giving them compassion rather than worrying about whether we’ll be Ok.
  • We could meditate, go for a walk, exercise, eat healthy food, deal with our finances, and do all kinds of other simple, helpful actions that we put off when we feel stressed about chaos.

Training With The Chaos

Notice when we’re feeling chaos and then use it as a kind of meditation, to breathe and then relax.

  • Notice when you’re feeling chaos. You don’t have to look for it. The world will always give us enough chaos to practice with.
  • Pause.
  • Breathe. Deep into your belly, slowly, letting yourself relax with each breath.
  • Then learn to relax with this feeling of chaos, uncertainty, fear, anxiety, shakiness, groundlessness.

Don’t look further if you love learning new things. A refreshing concept that provides quick ideas for busy thought leaders.

Best app ever! You heard it right. This app has helped me get back on my quest to get things done while equipping myself with knowledge everyday.

Ashley Anthony

This app is LOADED with RELEVANT, HELPFUL, AND EDUCATIONAL material. It is creatively intellectual, yet minimal enough to not overstimulate and create a learning block. I am exceptionally impressed with this app!

Sean Green

Great interesting short snippets of informative articles. Highly recommended to anyone who loves information and lacks patience.

Ghazala Begum

Even five minutes a day will improve your thinking. I've come across new ideas and learnt to improve existing ways to become more motivated, confident and happier.

Jamyson Haug

Great for quick bits of information and interesting ideas around whatever topics you are interested in. Visually, it looks great as well.

Giovanna Scalzone

Brilliant. It feels fresh and encouraging. So many interesting pieces of information that are just enough to absorb and apply. So happy I found this.

Laetitia Berton

I have only been using it for a few days now, but I have found answers to questions I had never consciously formulated, or to problems I face everyday at work or at home. I wish I had found this earlier, highly recommended!
