The NOW-IST
The NOW-IST
Hi, my name is Billy Mandarino. I'm the author of "The Now-ist" and the teacher of "The Now-ist Principles". I get this question often "why am I so caught up in things to make me happy?". Well, my beautiful little daughter when she was about three years old and was cleaning out her room, said "daddy, I have so much stuff in my room, I almost feel sick". She says "I feel stuffed sick" and I thought "here we are in this world, caught up in things, getting more things, buying more things, this retail therapy mentality to try and make us feel better."
If you are caught up in buying too many things or acquiring so many things, you are so focused on outward appearances, then you know that the power of awareness is going to be your best friend. The power that you have, the awareness that you have about this issue, it doesn't seem to fulfill you every time you buy something. An hour, a week, a few days later, it doesn't matter to you anymore, you're onto the next. That's something that will never fill you up. Service is the best way to get out of being stuffed sick. Find a way to serve somebody that cannot repay you. When you come from a place from "how can I serve?" not "what's in it for me?", your life will get better.
