5 Simple Ways to Learn How to Go With the Flow

Personal Growth, Spirit

Why go with the flow? Isn’t standing out and going against crowd mentality the smarter thing to do?

As with everything else in life, it’s all about context.

In this case, I am talking about how life “messes” with us. Like this week – I had everything all planned out so that I would be inspired and at 110% productivity.

And so did I.
