DETACHMENT AS A POSITIVE QUALITY

Detachment is a positive quality that is sometimes misunderstood as 'cutting off ' or 'running away.'

Detachment in the real sense means learning to separate things, the inside world and the outside world. Being able to see the difference between the two.

By outside world, I'm refering to eg. the job, study, finances, relationships and other external things.
By inside world, I'm refering to things that are less easily measured i.e feelings, conscience, personality, emotions all things that are happening inside my inner self.

The inside world, is influenced by thoughts. The way we think, can shape the way we live.

By creating positive thoughts, we influence the inner world eg. our feelings, our personality. This changes the quality of our lives.
