Sometimes yes, sometimes no

Sometimes yes, sometimes no.

That’s an attitude I really like from a Japanese mindfulness based approach. called constructive living.

Are you successful? Sometimes yes, sometimes no. Are you a happy person? Sometimes yes, sometimes no. Are you a good partner? Sometimes yes, sometimes no.

Softer judgments

I think that the use of that phrase helps to soften our judgments of ourselves as human beings who make mistakes and don’t get it right all the time. So remember it and try it out.

Does it work? Sometimes yes. Sometimes no.

Padraig O'Morain

I have practised mindfulness since the late 1980s, have taught mindfulness throughout Ireland and in London and have had books on mindfulness published in several countries and languages. I have demonstrated mindfulness on RTE, ITV and TV3 (now Virgin). I provide courses online. My latest book is "Acceptance - Create Change and Move Forward." My aim is to make mindfulness easily accessible to people in their everyday lives.
