We are a species obsessed with bests. We have to have the best house, best spouse, best kids, best car, best vacation, best reputation, best image and all the best stuff. If it doesn't make people jealous, it's not worth having. If it's not exclusive, it's not good enough.
We even want the best guru, the best meditation, and the best and fastest path to enlightenment.
Now, there's nothing wrong nice things. But this quest for best also comes with second guessing, doubting, dissatisfaction, frustration with our current situation, and an under-appreciation for the infinite blessings we already have. We fail to be present and at peace with the unique adventure life has laid out for us.
So how can we enjoy our path at our feet without getting lost in some imaginary alternative universe? How can we seek out those wonders in life without forgetting to enjoy what we already have? And how can we know when it's time to change course, or to relax and let the river take us where it wills?
In today's episode of *Lost and Alone: Secrets of Finding Yourself* I explore these topics and more.
