Panda’s Guide to a Happy Life :)
Pandas are more than just cute bears. They can teach you how to find peace by just becoming too lazy to react.
There is a lot of hidden knowledge behind that flab and chessboard like camouflage that can be of great use to you. Here are 3 lessons on how becoming more like a panda can help you in dealing with life better.
Lesson 1- Can’t solve a problem? Try climbing a Tree
They ask us to solve our problems, well what if you can simply avoid them? Not really escaping but more like not indulging in it.
When faced with a stronger animal, pandas climb to the top of the tree. The threat still exists but it can’t reach the panda anymore.
(Also pandas like sleeping on the trees, I bet it feels comfortable too)
Some problems like that annoying co-worker in your office do not have a permanent fix. Now, you can’t climb a tree. But you can plug in your earphones and don’t even listen to a song. But you can pretend you are and simply avoid their presence and you are good to go!
They still exist in your adjacent cubicle, but you no longer have to act interested in them. (Saved)
Lesson 2- Do what you want to do — Even if it means eating 14 hours a day
Feeling your idea is stupid? Thinking that others would judge you for your life choices? Or that you can’t confess that you binge-watch big boss?
This is what you got to learn from a panda. Pandas eat 14 hours, sleeps 10 hours, and poops 40 times in a single day. And doing just that is fulfilling to the Panda. (mah life mah rules)
Panda gives no damn to what others think of its lifestyle.
So, You do You, Boo
However weird your plan maybe,
if it gives you happiness and joy,
if doing it would make you feel satisfied by the end of the day
Then go ahead and just do it!
But yea, if you are pooping 40 times, you might need to call a doctor.
Lesson 3 — Staying alone is their preferred choice
Staying alone and loving it is the epitome of self-love and pandas have that in the bounty. Pandas like being alone and even mark their territory through their granular secretions. Even if a fellow panda evades their space, they don’t put up a fight, they simply find another place.(so logical)
What we can learn here is not to be afraid to be alone instead enjoy it, embrace it, have more of it. Go on solo trips, journal, commit to yourself as you would commit to a relationship.
And if someone tries to make you feel small. Do not give them even your minimal energy to fight. As they say “ignorance” is the best response sometimes.
Move ahead :)
Over to you
What do you think, isn’t Panda the coolest life coach?
