Diljit Dosanjh shares his stress-free life mantra, ‘Don’t Take Tension’ And Enjoy Life

If Diljit Dosanjh could sit down with you over a cup of tea and give you one piece of life advice, it seems he would keep it surprisingly simple “Don't take tension.” The singer-actor recently shared a candid video that once again offered a glimpse into his outlook on life. Sitting outdoors with a cup of tea, Diljit spoke about stress, negativity and the habit of worrying about what other people think.

There was no complicated life lesson or long explanation. Just Diljit, speaking directly to his fans in his familiar, easy-going manner and reminding them that life is too short to constantly carry other people's opinions and negativity.

Diljit Dosanjh Says, 'Don't Take Tension'

In his latest video, Diljit addressed people who bring unnecessary stress into one's life. “Don't take tension. Don't worry. Don't take tension. The one who gives you tension, cut him out of your life. There is no tension in this world. No one's opinion should matter to you,” he said. If someone continuously becomes a source of stress, his advice is straightforward create distance rather than allowing that negativity to occupy your mind.

And considering how much public attention Diljit himself receives, his statements offer an insight into the approach he says he follows in his own life.
