Being present, conscious and living in the moment
This is my 2013 resolution. I have been focusing and putting an emphasis
on being present and conscious in the moment for the past couple months. The return on investment has been immense for me. Far exceeds what I thought I would receive. I am enjoying life at a deeper and more
fulfilling level. Even those little enjoyable
things don’t seem so little. I’m
celebrating those too. Big deep breath and exhale, it does feel glorious. It wasn’t necessarily a hard change to make, it took a different focus and attention. Certainly one that I imagine I will remind myself to stay focused. It's also definitely one that was required to enjoy life at this level. I’ve chased away a few non-productive personal habits that really weren’t doing me any service, actually were quite hurtful. When I made the decision to live in the moment I saw myself taking one of those yard signs on a stake and driving it into the ground….the sign said “You don’t live here anymore” to my old habits. Do I have a few more that I should be chased away, you bet. I'm thinking this next round I will invite them to leave….or maybe if I just don’t give them acknowledgement when they rear their ugly head it will naturally fade away from my life.
Less drama..... more living and loving in the moment, that works for me.
