Thoughts of a Square Peg on a Round World: Mindfulness Challenge Day 1

Sunday, August 3, 2014

I signed up for a "7-Day Mindfulness Challenge" last week. Today is Day 1. Here it is:

Every time you pass through a door direct your attention to the present for a moment.

You can find the entire challenge here.

But more seriously, I often complain that the day is too short, and I wonder how time can pass so quickly. It does this (to me) because I don't pay attention. So mindfulness is very important to me.

A few of my earlier posts that are tagged "Meditation" give better background on this, too. There's this post, which you commented on, for example. Another good example is Why I Meditate.

Thank you so much for reading and commenting, Grand Sir!; August 5, 2014 at 11:00 PM
