Stop Trying To Get It And You'll Have It | The Backwards Law

“The mystery of life is not a problem to be solved but a reality to be experienced.” - Alan Watts
In our relentless pursuit of happiness and contentment, we often find ourselves trapped in a paradox. The more we chase after what we believe will bring us joy, the more elusive it becomes. This concept, referred to as "the backwards law," suggests that by letting go of our desires and embracing the present, we can find true satisfaction.
By understanding and practicing this idea, we can learn to cherish every experience, whether positive or negative, and realize that true contentment lies in acceptance and appreciation of the present moment. Dive deep into the philosophical and enlightening journey of understanding why striving harder might not always be the answer and why, sometimes, letting go is the key to having it all.

“We shoot for the stars and in doing so sometimes forget to appreciate the beauty of the moon” absolutely love that line. Keep up the good work my friend ❤

[@david.mysticalbeing]

We wake up from bed and do 80% of the things we did yesterday like eat, cook, clean, work etc and end up right back in bed for 80 years and than die. Such is life my friends, just enjoy the small moments

Life is sad and short I always say it whether it sounds like a downer line it’s the absolute truth the hardest pill to swallow, we all work so hard just to die in the end… some of us take life serious some laugh like it’s just a joke like tomorrow is promised

I understand where this is going, and agree with certain elements. Ultimately, though, I don't believe the problem is training ourselves to set "attainable" goals. I think the problem is that we keep training ourselves to believe in "attainable", and "unattainable", when the truth is, it's all the same. It's all attainable. We have a fearful refusal of that truth. We remain stubbornly married to the concepts of easy vs. hard, big vs. small, and the question of "how?", and it's those things that kneecap us.

Every single one of us is given the same gift at birth! Then life talks you out of it ( it’s the same for all of us )! Accepting your gift! This is the secret! Unlearning what life has stollen from you! This is where the difficulty arrives! The greatest song the Beatles ever wrote! “ let it Be” make this your theme song! Set yourself free!

[@toasty862]

This concept makes me so angry. Intellectually I know its correct, but emotionally it's f.cked. I should be rewarded for my effort. I should be rewarded for the amount of care I put in. I should not be denied what I want simply BECAUSE I want it.

[@jadebamgbala4336]

[@anthonyjourneymusic]

If we search we search for ever. If look we look forever. If we except ourself as the eternal moment all there is to experience is the stillness of oneness and the bliss of just being the now.

Identify your true identity here & now Do find your true self before doing anything & Be all will flow right bcos you are creator of your world, understanding is liberation from what we know, know yourself first

[@DianasReviews]

Key insights 🌟 The constant chase for more and better may be keeping us from finding happiness in the present moment. 🌞 The essence of genuine happiness lies in appreciating the simple joys and moments often overlooked in our busy lives. 🤔 The paradox of searching for something that is already within us, but being so engrossed in the search that we overlook it. 💭 Chasing desires and constantly pursuing something can actually make us feel more empty and unsatisfied, reinforcing the fact that we lack what we desire in the first place. ⚖ The will to life is a double-edged sword, driving our survival and accomplishments, but also creating a void within us. 🐹 Our pursuit of pleasure and constant desire for more can prevent us from finding true happiness and contentment. 🌟 True happiness and contentment often arise from embracing what we might perceive as undesirable or lacking, letting go of the urge to change or control every aspect of our lives. 🌊 When we try to stay on the surface of the water, we sink, but when we try to sink, we float - a profound statement about the nature of our struggles.

[@MindfulAssumptions]

It's amazing how our minds work and how our attempts to avoid certain thoughts can sometimes make them even more persistent. Thus, we should stop applying effort and learn to enjoy the present moment. Ideas and things don't come to us in a so called "future", we only experience the Now. We have to be deeply engaged in the present moment because this is all we have. If we become aware of being aware, we realize we are infinite consciousness and everything is already within us.
