Amor Fati: Love Your Fate
Amor Fati translates into the "Love of fate.” Whatever happens in life, wherever you find yourself right now or tomorrow, love it. Getting angry at the world is useless. It does nothing to change the world and it makes you miserable in the process. Loving your fate doesn’t change the world either, but its not supposed to. It’s suppose to change you. And if you practice it consistently, it will.
Creativity is one of the most energy-intensive activities for the human brain. To be creative, your brain needs to override the normal, patterned way of thinking. Trying to connect new ideas together is not easy.
Anger and fear are also energy intensive activities for the brain. Since emotions like anger and fear are tied to survival, since they’re a part of our DNA, the brain is very willing to spend energy on them.
Amor Fati cuts through this problem. Loving your fate short-circuits the process of becoming angry or fearful. You can’t hold both contradictory emotions in your body at the same time. You can either love what’s happening or be afraid of it, but you cannot be both at the same time.
