"La plus grande partie de la douleur humaine est inutile. Elle est auto-créée tant que l'esprit non observé dirige votre vie."

Eckhart Tolle

Simplified Meaning:

Much of the pain and stress people feel is because of how they think, not because of real problems. Imagine you’re worried about speaking in front of a group. If you keep thinking "I’ll mess up," or "They will laugh at me," you're causing yourself unnecessary anxiety. This anxiety isn't from the actual event but from your mind's negative thoughts. Similarly, when people continuously replay past mistakes or worry too much about the future, they're causing themselves extra pain. To have a happier, stress-free life, it's important to notice these thoughts and not let them control you. By being aware of your thoughts and focusing on what's happening right now, you can reduce a lot of your own suffering.
