Accept what needs to be changed.

Accept what needs to be changed. Accept its nature. Don't fight against it. When we accept something,we stop paying attention to it.  Once something is accepted, our attention shifts away from it. Therefore, learn to accept.  Accept everything you have. Accept your addictions too. Stop paying attention to them.  A misguided ascetic develops habit of penance, fasting and suppressing anger. When you fast, your mind is preoccupied with food all day. So don't create such habits. Try to transform your attention.  This is the right way to be free from addictions. 

Expectations increase dissatisfaction !!

You must have often heard someone around you saying that such a person did not live up to their expectations or he is very disappointed with such a thing. There are some people who start expecting from themselves beyond their capabilities and then when they are not able to fulfill expectations then they start being unhappy with themselves. It means to say that the heavy burden of expectations snatches away the happiness of human beings. Whether those expectations are from someone else or from yourself. But when we set our expectations with reality in mind , disappointment is rarely encountered. In fact , the happiness that suddenly happens when something good happens,it doesn't meet the expected things, because on the occasion of sudden happiness, you would not have set your expectations. Don't expect impractical things from anyone.
