Sometimes we spend a lot of time and energy trying to break down the ‘boulders’ and ‘rocks’ in our lives, when in fact, all we may need to do is simply to move around them, go beyond them, or take ourselves above them. Perhaps we just need to shift our mindset, shift our perspective, and what seemed like a mountain might turn out to be a molehill after all. In this way we can more easily ‘fly’ over the problem.

Many a time we know we should be engaging in certain behaviors, but instead we actively or passively choose not to, and thus we act or become lazy. The Greeks have a name for this: Akrasia. It means ‘lacking command’ or ‘weakness of the will’. Akrasia is described as a lack of self-control, or the state of acting against one’s better judgement.
