"So What"––Andy Warhol's framework for acceptance.

Written by Cole Schafer

Everything will be okay the day you no longer need everything to be a certain way.

The Buddhists call this acceptance.

Acceptance, is our ability to be fully present in each of life's moments (even when life's moments aren't going according to plan).

Finding acceptance when life is going to hell in a hand-basket can be difficult.

Because of this, it can be helpful to have some sort of reminder to yourself to accept what is happening rather than fight it.

For Andy Warhol, this reminder came in the form of the words 'so what'...

“Sometimes people let the same problem make them miserable for years when they could just say, So what. That's one of my favorite things to say. So what.”
