I was just reading some things online about minimalism & the disciplined pursuit of less. It got me thinking about how for me running E2 is so much about eliminating the mental & emotional clutter. To clean out all the mental & emotional junk so I can focus on what matters most. I'm not a person who needs or wants much. I realized a few years ago how having a lot or chasing those things is a distraction from what's important. I see how not dealing with your mental & emotional clutter in so many ways makes it difficult if not impossible to rationally & in a mature way face the challenges life throws at a person. I literally see it every day at my job with how people respond to what I would consider a minor inconvenience. Someone calling a wrong number. If you lose your mind over something so small I have to wonder what kind of meltdown do you have over larger obstacles?
Actually I don't have to wonder. I've seen my mother lose her mind over the internet being slow or some program on television being preempted. How does one cope when the their mental & emotional growth stopped somewhere between being a toddler & five years old?
