We focus on the wrong things, thinking that happiness and fulfillment is something that we can find outside of ourselves, so we try to look for it in other people. We so desperately try to get other people's approval that we lose ourselves in the process. We waste our time thinking about the past that we can't change, or we worry too much about things that shouldn't matter.

Imagine you’re out at sea...completely lost. You’re starving, thirsty, and the hot sun is burning your neck. The little boat you’re on works just fine. The engine is running, the tiller is functioning and you know you’re somewhere close to land. But you’re just too scared to go the wrong direction. All of a sudden, a map drops out of the sky. You thank the Universe because this map gives you context, understanding, and a way to solve your current problems. Now, think of the boat with the perfectly fine engine and tiller as your body, and the map as a mental model.
