sweat the small stuff

We are immobilized by the small stuff. Our lives are one drama after another. Everything is an emergency. We actually convince ourselves that this stuff is important and matters, but in reality the problems are coming from inside of us and not being dictated by external reality. The way we react to our situations is critical to whether we improve it or not. Instead of reacting to these situations, we need to develop a perspective that reminds us that these situations are not really that bad, important, critical, or whatever.
