Episode Synopsis

Should you always try to get what you want?
We tell our minds to speed up, make decisions, satisfy our desires and create quick solutions to our problems. An active mind gets us places but sometimes leads to hasty choices and long-term unhappiness.  If we discipline our mind to slow down, we can think more clearly and make smarter decisions. By resisting the impulse to control the universe, we can take advantage of the possibilities the universe reveals for us. True self-discipline requires the wisdom of knowing when to speed up or slow down our mind to get what we want.
