Better Living Through Selective Disdain

Better Living Through Selective Disdain is your helpful guide to achieving a healthy and balanced life. Making a conscious decision about what is worth caring about helps us to understand the reasons why we have stress and anxiety in the first place, and how to avoid the majority of stress-causing variables in our daily life.

We are bombarded with "daily atrocities" from every direction. Every one of these are molehills we are expected to turn into mountains, but doing so only strands us in a mountain range from which there is no escape. We cannot be effective in coping with problems or creating necessary change in our world when we are spread in too many directions.

Better Living Through Selective Disdain is learning how to step back and objectively examine every piece of information we have presented to us, and determining an appropriate response instead of a knee-jerk reaction. It is being selective about which molehills we make into the mountains we can successfully navigate across. It is selecting to be disdainful of the drama others try to create in our lives. It is selecting to be disdainful of religious and political extremism. It is selecting to be disdainful of the social problems of xenophobia, intolerance, cruelty, and dwelling unnecessarily on either the past or the future. It is your guide to a more stoic approach to life, helping to reduce anxiety and stress.
