10 commandments of joy: 2. Take time out for yourself



If for the whole day you only engaged in gathering sources for creativity, sometime during the day sit for a few minutes, get into the cave of your heart, eyes closed and kick the world away like a ball. But during the day be 100% attached to the work. Eventually you will be able to be both attached and detached at the same time. This is the skill of living, art of living.

You have to renounce all work you have done the whole day, only then can you rest in the night. Creativity springs up when you are relaxed. Taking out sometime for yourself improves the quality of your life. Learning something about the breath and other levels of our existence is very important.
