How to Solve All of Life’s Problems: The 10 ‘Remindments’.

A quick, practical guide to a nurtured and content soul.

I know this is a question with a lot of weight, but don’t worry… I’m keeping this short and to the point. Lots of people will assume the writer of it can’t know the answer. Many will say the answer is incorrect. You’re right. I’m not here to solve all your problems. You can do that.

In the end you’re going to have to figure all of this out for yourself.

I’ve put together some ideas (or ‘remindments’), that have helped me build on my focus, creativity and happiness. Maybe some of the things that have worked for me will remind you to keep pointing yourself in the direction you already know you need to go. Sometimes all we need is a reminder.

The 10 Remindments

1. Balance.

Your world is defined by the boundaries you set for yourself. If your ‘comfort zone’ is set to your home and sofa, that’s where you’ll stay. What do you need in your world, and what do you not? Don’t overcomplicate yourself. You’ve heard of yin and yang? Balance your Yin with your Yang.

2. Send out more love than you receive.

Sometimes it’s good to remember to give something back, if nothing else, it will always make you a better person.

3. Relish the imperfections of life — and yourself.

If everything was the same, and everyone looked ‘good’, nobody would look good. Strange curiosities and imperfections are the things that make people worth knowing.

4. Be bold. (I think daring to answer a question like ‘How to solve all of life’s problems’ is reasonably bold)

Whatever interests you is valuable. It’s part of this incredibly rare and unlikely world and so is important. Don’t shy away from what makes you interesting, embrace it and the world will be a better place because of it.

5. The journey is more important than the destination

Keep hold of your dreams and aspirations, you’ll need them. (But don’t be afraid to change course when you really need to). All I can say is you better enjoy the ride, as you’ll be spending much more time on the way to your destinations than being there. And if you missed out on the journey, finally getting there would not mean much at all.

6. Spend more time doing the things you like to do than the things you don’t.

Obviously sometimes to be able to achieve this you have to start on a journey, and at the outset this won’t be easy for everyone. It can be looked at in two ways. You can make the things you do, however mundane, be a worthwhile experience. (Like turning i.e. washing the dishes, into a form of meditation.) Or you can aim more generally to declutter your life from all that takes away from ‘the good stuff’.

7. Don’t do things so others will like you. Do things you like to do.

This is quite relevant in the era of social media, and doing things simply to be liked by others might work for others, but it shouldn’t work for you. You’ll grow a bitter skin and you’ll lose sight of what’s meaningful to you. Sure, you should do things to be nice, and help others, but not just so they like you. Do it because you want to, or do something else.

8. Don’t regret, but learn.

If you’re not where you want to be now, either because of something you’ve done in the past or what you haven’t done yet, don’t regret the actions you took which got you here. And certainly don’t look back on with regret things that were out of your control!

You don’t know where you’re going to be in the future, and it will probably be a better place than you’ve ever been. Learn from your mistakes and focus on what you can do to make a better life for yourself and maybe even those around you.

9. Everything happens for a (good) reason.

This is something I believe from my experience, but the idea can be easily misinterpreted and taken the wrong way. There are many bad things that happen, (and have happened) in our world that are impossible to justify with any ‘good reason’. BUT, you’re here now, wherever you are, reading this – with all the thoughts in your brain and experiences you’ve gained along the way. You are here, now. Believe it or don’t. I think – that’s what it’s all for.

10. You could die today! Don’t look forward to tomorrow. Look forward to right now. You don’t have time to lose.

Sometimes it takes a brush of mortality to remind a person of their priorities and to focus on a path to fulfil those dreams. Don’t wait around for a knock at death’s door, stop reading this and take action right now!

P.S.

Don’t believe someone who tells you it’s possible to solve all of life’s problems by reading an article. Then think about it again, and realise it is.

Fine, you caught me. But it’s not what you think. Everyone is adorned with their own set of issues. There is not necessarily a blanket cure for everyone. If you want to solve the world’s problems, start by figuring out what yours are, and fix it up. If you can’t do that, start by fixing someone else’s problem, and maybe you’ll get something out of it that will be helpful in figuring out what you’ve got to deal with yourself.

The important point to note is that you’ve got to listen to yourself to figure out what you need and what you don’t. Take information from others but don’t take it as fact, or true, as everything is written from some kind of perspective and it might not apply to you at all. Take what inspires you to grow and leave all the rest behind.

Kindest,
