It often seems difficult to change your life or implement some of the suggestions talked about in self-help books, but I find it interesting that the things you talk about here, in some sense, are also very easy. I particularly like your advice about not rushing, about taking moments of silence, reflection, and meditation. I think that nearly all of us have tremendous capacity for wisdom and good decision-making, which we often ignore, but which we can easily tap into if we only give ourself the opportunity to.

I find that a lot of problems in our lives can be solved almost effortlessly if we simply ask ourselves, in the moment, if we really want to say or do certain things.
