Life experience has made me much more stoic and adaptable than a lot of people I meet, and they have trouble with the concept of letting go the small stuff. I have a very few intimately personal guidelines for living my life, and situations or people I simply won't tolerate for long, but my general response is to vanish rather than raise a stink. It's not beliefs that make your life chaotic: it's trying to convince other people to follow them as well.
