I am mindful of each moment

 Each moment of my life matters to me. Life is composed of a string of moments, and I am determined to make the most of each moment of my life. The first step to maximizing my experience of living is to be mindful. 

Mindfulness allows me to experience each moment fully. 

When I am lacking mindfulness, I am missing out on my life. My life can become grueling, overwhelming, and lack purpose. When I pay attention to the moment in front of me, I am fully living my life. My life has meaning, is manageable, and fulfilling. 

I avoid spending too much time thinking about the past. The past is less relevant than the present. Thinking about the past most often leads to feelings of regret, anxiety, and depression. Regret is an enemy of my enjoyment of the present. Anxiety and depression steal my happiness. These negative feelings can bring about a relapse if I am not mindful and nip it in the bud. 

I avoid worrying about the future. Worrying about what might happen next also makes life less enjoyable. I practice being present by flipping the script, which switches my thinking to a positive thought process. And remembering where my feet are, keeps me grounded in the present moment.

 

I keep my mind fixed on the present because this is when my life is actually happening. As my life unfolds, I have a front-row seat to the experience. I don’t take life for granted, and being in the present moment brings joy, contentment, peace, and a more fulfilled life. 

Today, I am being mindful of each moment of my life. I am committed to keeping my mind clear and focused. As each moment of my life passes by, I experience it fully. I am mindful of each moment.

 

Self-Reflection Questions:

 

  1. How do I commonly distract myself from boredom, stress, or other uncomfortable feelings?
  2. Do I spend too much time thinking about the past or the future? Why? What benefit do I think I derive from this behavior?
  3. What can I do today to be more mindful of my life?

Wasting Time With Micro Timewasters

I t's   funny how we  notice when we waste time on a large scale. We notice that we spend an hour on social media or watch TV for three hours. However, these aren’t the only ways we waste time. We waste time in dozens of ways each day. Many of these time wasters aren’t always obvious, but the time can really add up over the course of a day, a week, or a decade.
