Stay in my lane is my go to for dealing with all the ..."should I help them"...or worrying about other family members choices. I like the fun of this monkey saying though. Very playful!
I’ve loved this saying for a long time. Keeps things in perspective!
I love this saying! It’s actually an old Polish proverb. I try to remember to use it to not let myself get caught up in things I have no control over.
Thank you for letting me know about the Polish origins of this phrase, Linda. I always wondered where it came from.

Love this simple slogan.
Monkey mind may be unavoidable, however one can turn one's attention to the the nature of being which dissolves mental chatter.
