    Slow down. 3 months ago

    I find that I don’t pay attention whenever I’m rushing through something. I’m slowing down & taking time to BREATHE and take in everything that’s around me.

    Huh? 7 months ago

    Well I used to be very observant. I still kinda am, but I have been slacking off lately. I’ll end up doing stupid things like not notice a light is green and ill start braking. This results in my passenger yelling at me and I start to feel like a dumb ass. I have no idea why I have started to space out when i drive and sometimes when people are talking to me which I very rarely do.

    I can’t really think of a good way to overcome this. The only thing I can think of is maybe forcing myself to notice things. I could always take a good look at each area I travel or visit and remember to check if its the same each day. For when I’m driving though I think I just need to concentrate on driving lol.

    Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

    Not only to me, but to things on general.



    I seem to... 19 months ago

    be in a mode that I am unable to pay much attention to my list.

    I wonder if I am progressing on some of the goals, without knowing it.

    I can’t say I am in a place at the moment that I want to look and find out! But I also know that such sentiments can change quite quickly for me. So I won’t get too concerned.

    (Now that I’ve written it, I know that that last statement in and of itself is progress for me… and I’ll just leave it at that).



    A jolt of a start 20 months ago

    I have already caught myself question my thoughts IN MY SLEEP! Unfortunately, I did not write it down immediately and already forget the exact situation, but I questioned what I was thinking and made myself re-frame it.

    I guess I talked to enough people about monitoring my thinking yesterday that it became part of my dreaming last night.

    Very, very strange and unexpected. But perhaps a good sign of how deeply this desire is being planted in me?



    I need to... 20 months ago

    not be afraid to write about ‘good’.

    It doesn’t mean the good will disappear.

    And I do know there is no perfect.



    It would help to... 20 months ago

    pay more attention to my self-talk.

    But how does one do this at all times???

    It sounds overwhelmingly daunting. But maybe it is another ‘bit by bit’ thing?

    (lots more work needed in the ‘grey zone’...)



    I still see... 20 months ago

    how many of my goals are linked.

    Emotional procrastination, calming down, not calling my family often.

    They are all connected to how I feel about/view myself.

    It all comes down to growing in my relationship with Christ, and emotional healing.

    I pay attention to the littlest things when I’m just having a random conversation and I absorb things easily in school, but whenn it comes to being observant and taking instructions, I am among the worst. I would love to overcome this aspect of me… but I don’t know how quite yet…



    twistedwires is home forever.
