The Empty Boat Mindset:
(a visual thread)
A monk is meditating on a lake when a boat bumps into his…
He feels the irritation and anger building within him…
He opens his eyes to see an empty boat.
His anger disappears, for you can’t be angry at an empty boat…
In life, you’re going to experience countless collisions…
The negative emotions that build are rarely from the collision itself, but from your perception of the negative intent behind it…
Your interpretation of the collision creates your own poison…
The Empty Boat Mindset is a reminder that most of the collisions in life are with an empty boat…
When you embrace it, you reassume control over your own boat…
Am I just getting angry at an empty boat?
