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.

10 commandments of joy: 1. Give the divine a chance

In the New year, let your devotion flower and give it a chance to work. Prayer is a vital tool to improve your life. It also nourishes values like integrity and honesty. If you are not grateful and prayerful, you will be miserable. What you can do, you do and what you cannot do you pray for. The feeling that 'I am blessed' can help you overcome any failure. Once you realise you are blessed all complaints disappear and all the insecurities disappear.

The higher goals in life can only be achieved by a few minutes of meditation and introspection. Meditation brings deepest of deepest rest. The deeper you can rest, the more dynamic you will be in activity. Even though deep rest and dynamic activity are opposite values, they are complimentary.
