THE BULL'S EYE OF LIFE, "SHOOTING THROUGH THE MIDDLE"
THE MIDDLE WAY, "SUFFICIENT" MASTERY, SELECTIVE FOCUS, WITHOUT ANXIETY
This is about how to best live your live. Just enough skills in what really matters, no self concern as you know you'll do and be fine.
This is also about the conclusions of the master gurus. Buddha tried ascetism, experienced wealth and even opulence. And in the end, he decided the best route was to go The Middle Way.
The Middle Way in life is following the path of "flow", which opens up the human capacity to cause a much better life. And part of the path involves eliminated the emotional barriers that narrow down one's resources available for easily making life great. Consider this hierarchy of flow, below, and then consider and choose which way to live your best life.
In the piece The Sweet Spot In Life, we refer to the metaphor of surfing, where we are trying to "shoot the curl" of the wave, going to the side just fast enough to avoid the crashing wave, while going forward and speeding along, in the joy of the ride!
Metaphorically, this is what happens to you in life:
Too slow to the side, the wave crashes on you.
Just right, shoot the curl successfully
Not playing, don't get out there or get out there too little.
Living the life that "flows", without anxiety and without undue pressure, is reached by learning, as soon as is feasible, "Sufficient Knowing" and then matching that level to what you want in life - but only what you really want - and definitely not stretching yourself into emotional oblivion and imbalance in life and not seeking excessive success in financial terms or other terms, not seeking approval or perfection, not trying to be above realistic limitations of a human being - and being sure to always stay in or return asap to living in The Zone - and perhaps choosing the The H+ Power Zone higher part of The Zone.
