I love this. I printed it out and am putting it in my ACT "goody bag".

I have been struggling with expectations a lot lately. The pain of unmet expectation can be debilitating. I found this piece after doing a Google search: http://zenhabits.net/ah/. It is very ACT-like and gets to the heart of dealing with the burden of expectations. If you have been having similar struggles I hope you enjoy it.

Thanks for the link, . missed it first time around. I know my kind works well as a prediction and problem-solving machine, but after a half-century of mixing up prediction scenarios and the present moment reality, a regular kick in the butt to remember the lesson of Now is always welcome....Lou, thanks for giving me a second chance at the link. I can't know for sure I will next go back to reread it, but it is one possible future in an infinite lineup....D

Hi , I don't know where you came from, where you are or where you're going. I guess I don't know much about anything but here we are,, in this space, in this time...we are here, here we are...what will you do next? I'm undecided....
