This Week's Reflection

 

We can be inclined to think - well, actually and sadly, it comes naturally - that one now is pretty much like another - that, if we're going through our daily routine, it's just another day on the treadmill.

 

And that may well be so in terms of what we're doing day-in, day-out. But it's not what we're doing that matters (see below!), it's how we're doing it. Are you doing what you have to do like you mean it?

 

Now, before I go any further, a point of clarification: of course it matters if we're doing the wrong thing and, as you know, reacting is always the wrong thing, always. And, actually and sadly, that comes naturally too.

 

That said, say if you have an apparently mind-numbing job (or life!). You have a choice. You can choose to be mind-numbed (it's not the job that's mind-numbing it's what you think about it that numbs you from the neck up). Or you can choose to do it like it matters. Because it does. Every moment of your life matters because, in every moment, this is your life.

 

In other words, regardless of what you have to do, you could do it wholeheartedly, like you mean it. You could immerse yourself in it because, regardless of the activity itself, your choosing to immerse yourself in it is where you will find Flow.

 

And, with Flow, comes the flow of coincidence, synchronicity and apparent happenstance that will... change your life.

 

 

 

This Week's Quick Tip

 

Read this morning's Reflection - you might even read it more than once because, what comes to us naturally is always mind-numbing... it's just the way evolution intended.

 

But we both know that you can take charge of your own personal evolution - in a very real way. Meditation provides you with a brain that's shaped differently from the one that evolutio gave you.

 

So, today, use some of the activities that you have to do anyway as a little meditation - you do that, as this morning's Reflection says, by immersing yourself in what you're doing.

 

Do it like you mean it.
