This Week's Reflection
I celebrated thirty years of working for myself on the first of this month - it's the longest job I've held down!!
Over those 30yrs, I've marvelled at people's obsessions - with money, weight, self-image - all the stuff that, were you to stop thinking about it, it would look after itself.
And, when I put it like that, on reflection, I must marvel at how difficult we make it for ourselves to just let go and let all good things fall into our lap. As I say in this week's Video, "if it's for you, it won't pass you by".
We find it difficult to find 10mins in the morning to meditate! That statement actually requires more than one exclamation mark, doesn't it!!!?!!
We've no problem doom-scrolling, no problem gossipping, no problem dozing in front of the television but so many people can't - or won't - make the time for the one thing that is guaranteed to change your life.
All that said, I marvel at something far more wonderful...
I marvel at the number of people with whom I've worked, with whom I now work, who have changed and are changing their lives, who have embraced the most exciting adventure life has to offer - life itself.
For myself, I marvel at what I described to my fellow morning meditators earlier this week - the "delicious feeling" of being in flow. That's enough for me. In fact, that's enough.
This Week's Quick Tip
You don't know what the next moment holds for you - there could be clear and present danger or it could hold the kind of life-changing opportunity that you'll miss if you don't turn up to the next moment.
So, how do you ensure that you turn up to the next here and now? Easy - by turning up to this one. How you turn up to this now will largely determine how you turn up to the next one.
So, right now, stop and read these words one word at a time. Don't try to read anything into them, just read them, one word at a time.
And, when you've done that, read this Quick Tip over again.
It's called paying attention to the here and now or... turning up.
