“Self-centred people are stressed out”, interview with Swami Parthasarathy

Can you be in a toxic work situation and have a great attitude?
Everybody is toxic. Everybody is troubled. The whole thing boils down to being self-centred; it has nothing to do with work, nothing to do with the environment, nothing to do with the employer or your spouse. Anybody who is self-centred will be stressed out.
How do you manage expectations in this day and age…
This is called the herd instinct because you don’t think and therefore you suffer. You went to school, right? You earned a degree. But, you never thought why you are going to school or to university. Then you got a job, but never thought why you should get a job. Then you get married and have children. You don’t think. By the age of 10 or 12 you say you are Christian, Muslim, Hindu or Buddhist. But, you have no clue what your religion is, and all the wars are fought in the name of religion. Start thinking now. Question everything and you won’t have this problem.
