Ira wishes he had more time for 43things

Try meditation (read all 4 entries…)
I'm experimenting with different ways of doing it 2 years ago

One problem I’ve been having is that I keep nodding off during meditation! (My thoughts aren’t that boring I swear! :) ) So I did it one day standing up, and it’s workable. Also, you don’t really need to close your eyes, do you? I don’t know why I had it in my head that you have to, but I checked the article I linked to in the other entry and it doesn’t say anywhere that you have to close your eyes.

It’s still hard to not engage with my thoughts as they come up, but I’m feeling less restless during the meditation. Hopefully in time I’ll get the hang of it :)

I don't think there's one "right" way

to meditate. I imagine that different styles work for different people, so it was a great idea for you to experiment. Meditation probably isn’t the easiest thing to do, but I know you’ll reap great rewards for your efforts. :)

I think you're right!

Like most things in life, I’ll probably stumble onto what suits me by experimenting :)

I saw this old entry when I made my post under this goal

And now I want to know what all your secret, not-boring thoughts are. Go on, tell us. :D
