The taking place of everything has its reason, which is truth from the teaching of the Buddha. No matter we believe it or not, the beginning and end of everything all follow this rule.

Thing happens and ends. Everyone and everything can not stay away from this rule. So, it is impossible for us to keep anything in hand, no matter how much we wish to keep it.

So, when we realize such truth of the universe, we should be smart enough to get to the right attitude, easy going, early.

Yes, easy going is the most smart and saving way toward the life. But, one important thing should be kept in mind is that only when we have tried our best, can we have the right to be optional.

This claim has been clear enough. That’s only when we have tried our best for everything, can we act following any cause.

So, easy going is the most correct, positive and arduous life, which is never the negative and loosing attitude.

Because what we call the cause are the conditions. If we try our best to do something, giving all the successful condition, then of course, the thing has the high probability to be success. On the contrary, if we let it happen without any effort, then we are giving it the most failure conditions. Thing tends to be failure easily.

So, to act following any cause, we should have tried our best first. And, only when we have tried our best, can we really feel release and feel comfortable. This is the point of what we call easy going.
