Take a few moments to pause and relax this holiday season.
When I think of the old paradigm – my old, ill-conceived, self-taught definition of success (that success means money, wealth, status, and power) – I am reminded of an old parable that goes something like this:

I’m always bothered when I hear people focusing on what went wrong in their lives, day after day after day. These people are suffering from a chronic bad day, and I hate this for them, because it is absolutely unnecessary. It’s not raining five feet away, but they’re carrying their own clouds around everywhere they go.
