The most memorable snippet of advise I remember reading is from non other than AMA Artist of the Year 2011 Ms Taylor Swift.
She said that she likes to divide things into two categories. 1) Things I can change and 2) Things I can't.
Its simple, yet it works. When dealing with an issue, I am able to identify with this and divide it into these 2 categories. It doesnt mean giving up on 2), but rather concentrating my efforts into the stuff that has a higher priority. Thats revolutionary, because Sag's like me and Taylor love nothing better than to overcomplicate, overthink and want to deal with every minor detail that crops up. Remembering this helps me keep on the right track.
Interesting thoughts Ive got from this so far in my life.
1) One thing you can always change, is yourself.
2) Things that you cant change, wont stay unchangeable forever.
3) Sometimes, you need to realise that you cant change things by yourself, and you need Someone to change it for you. :)
4) All that being said, sometimes change can wait.
So, heres to never changing, yet never staying the same. Its a Sag thing. after all.
and meet me in the pouring rain
