Think Like a Monk

by Jay Shetty

Three key ideas

  1. Ask which beliefs come from your own experience and which you absorbed from other people.
  2. Borrowed expectations are not automatically wrong; ask whether you endorse them now.
  3. A brief pause can help you recognize emotion, check interpretation, and choose a response.

The five 2-minute lessons

  1. 1.Whose idea was it, really?
  2. 2.Notice first, react second
  3. 3.Use what you can do for someone
  4. 4.Say thanks for something specific
  5. 5.Routines that fit your real life

From the comic
