Eckhart Tolle: Essential Teachings

NOTE

Embrace Impermanence and Manage Expectations

Life situations are unpredictable and precarious, with ups and downs in various aspects. Striving to improve and focusing on what you can do better is essential. However, seeking a sense of completion or happiness solely from external factors is futile. Attachment to any aspect of life leads to disappointment as everything is impermanent. Managing expectations and not looking for self-fulfillment in the external world is crucial, as external factors are transient and cannot bring lasting happiness. It's important to do your best in your life situation while understanding the impermanent nature of everything.
