Everyone’s life is like a baggage. The more you pack into the baggage, the more you will feel more and more stressed. Until one day, when you can no longer walk and are overwhelmed, you realize that your burden is too heavy.

Many people don’t know it, but they always feel that the pressure in life is too great, making them breathless. But they have forgotten one thing. Everyone's life is similar. The root cause of "high stress" is themselves.

If we don’t throw away meaningless clutter, we will live with it all our lives. When you throw away unnecessary clutter while walking, you will find that your life becomes much easier.

A famous person said, Before middle age, I suggest you do addition, because you have to try everything to find your own direction. After middle age, I suggest that you do less, reduce stress, and move forward lightly. This is the right way.

Whether you are middle-aged or in your later years, the best attitude towards life is to live a life of "subtraction".

All "subtractions" mean that we have to "let go" of some things and "let go" of some people, so as to achieve the purpose of reducing the burden in life.

Throw away these things in time, and I believe you will live a better life than the average person after the age of 60.

02

Get rid of "annoying" things in time.

A Zen master once said that if there are no other things to worry about, it is a good time in the world.

If there are no idle things deep in your heart, then every day you live is actually a good time in the world. This is the wisdom of "clearing away worries".

For modern people, it is easy to increase worries, but very difficult to reduce worries. Because life is full of troubles and we can’t let them go, the above-mentioned contradictions naturally arise.

You were taking the subway to work, and suddenly you were stepped on by someone. Then you would be very angry and even want to step on the other person. As a result, you will be in "emotional internal consumption" this day.

When you come home from get off work in the evening and you have been emotionally drained all day long, and you see no one cooking, and your children and your partner are lying around playing with their mobile phones, you will only feel more and more that your life is meaningless, and you will naturally become troubled.

In middle age, we don’t know how to throw away “troubles”. In our old age, "troubles" will accumulate, covering up the positive side of our hearts and making us no longer happy.

03

Discard unnecessary "desires" in time.

People have three original sins, which are called "greed, anger, and ignorance." Among the three original sins, only "greed" ranks first, and it is also insurmountable. Of course, this is related to the "greed" in human nature.

We might as well think about a question, why can't we overcome greed? Schopenhauer once said that life is a mass of desires.

We live because of "desire". For physiology, we need desires; for money and fame, we need desires; for having more of everything, we will let our desires expand.

Some people have deposited hundreds of thousands and feel unhappy. They think that a deposit of millions is considered happiness. When they achieve a deposit of millions, they feel that they will be happy only if they have a deposit of tens of millions.

If this is the case, they will never be happy in their lives. Because human desire is like a black hole, expanding infinitely until it swallows everything up.

people, it is better not to have excessive desires. As the saying goes, "Abstinence and abstinence, contentment is always the best." Throw away your inflated desires and choose to live a peaceful life, and you will find that the world is also so beautiful and happy.

04

Throw away the "trivial matters" of life in time.

Major events in life can make people confused, but their impact on people is not too great. However, the trivial matters in life will make people exhausted. In the long run, the trivial matters will crush a person.

Why do couples quarrel, why do parents and children turn against each other over certain issues, and why do relatives have irreconcilable conflicts?

All these are caused by trivial matters .

When we see our partner not doing things according to our wishes, we will feel angry; when we see our children going against our wishes, we will feel dissatisfied; when we see our relatives behave inappropriately, we will dislike it.

Everyone has his own choice and his own views. Why do we have to get so entangled in trivial matters? Because human beings are like a bag, specially designed to contain trivial chores and bad things.

Starting from today, be a person who doesn’t care about things and throw away unnecessary trivial matters, then the stone in your heart will fall to the ground.

05

discard "people" who do not belong to you in a timely manner.

We should not get involved in things that do not belong to us; we should not own things that do not belong to us; we should choose to let go of people who do not belong to us.

Some people are just passers-by in our lives. No matter how much we do, we can't keep them. Why don't we let them go?

Buddha said that to let others go is to let yourself go.

If you are too persistent and do not relax a little, you are torturing yourself. What's more, the person you are attached to has no fate with you, so even if you are together, what will be the result?

likes this word very much - it's easy to get together and get together easily.

It is fate that we can get together. And leaving is inevitable. As the saying goes, "There is no such thing as a feast that lasts forever." In this case, it is the best choice to meet at this station and separate at the next station. It is the best choice to live in peace with each other.
