pay more attention

Just get caught in my own stupid bubble. My own stupid world.

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.

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.

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).

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?

not be afraid to write about ‘good’.

It doesn’t mean the good will disappear.

And I do know there is no perfect.

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’...)

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…
