It’s been a very busy year. I don’t pretend to think I am alone in thinking this. I have an amazing friend who just completed her Ph.D., start to finish, in two years. Now that is busy! (Way to go Stacy Jones!)
For too many of us, life gets too busy, even overwhelming. Our purpose becomes getting from Monday to Friday. I ask you to have a better goal today than to get through the day. I ask you to slow down and enjoy the day. I promise you there is something enjoyable that you are going to miss as you rush by it – bird singing, a sunset (I hear these happen every day ?) a chance to be thankful, a chance to be present.
If we slow down and are truly present in each moment this day will be different than most. We may hear our loved ones trying to tell us something that we have not been hearing. We may see the beauty that we have been missing.
I want you to make yourself present within the moment as much as you can today.
– Think about what is happening now, not about what still needs to be done.
– Put a sticker on your cell phone to remind you to slow down and just enjoy the moment.
– Set an alarm on your phone and when it goes off simply look around, take a deep breath and notice one good thing.
We are surrounded by pretty amazing things and people every day. Today, let’s notice them.
