Everyday enlightenment

Someone gave me this article on everyday enlightenment and I found it very powerful. I'm not normally one for this extreme spiritual awareness meditation kinda thing, but this guy really made me think. He just made so much sense. Tempted to by his book really.
"Accept the ups and downs, don’t put pressure on yourself to be positive all the time. If today was good, that’s great, if not, that’s okay."
Been reading some of his stuff online and so many of his quotes just speak volumes to me right now. Could go on and on and start getting all deep about it, but I won't don't worry!
He's main idea though is that sometimes in this very hectic world, we all just need to take a step back sometimes and have a little pause, to realise the importance of life. When you're rushing around stressing, sometimes its easy to lose focus of what really matters and feel overwhelmed by it all. His thoughts fit in very well with my current 'go with the flow' philosophy.
I even got to 2000 words of my history coursework this evening, feeling very at one with the world haha.
Adios, smile.
