What’s one small improvement you can make in your life?

When I look at myself, there are a ton of improvements I need to make. Yet, one of my misgivings has become a total frustration…at least to myself. And even if it may sound impossible to correct, especially at fifty years old, I believe I can make the adjustment.

I’d like to think things through a little more, especially during conversations. Heck, even when doing daily chores, or toiling away at my job, that act will work wonders. I think it’s imperative that I work on it.

I’ve heard it said, and, for the most part, it’s the truth: thinking sets us apart from the animals. Believe it or not, when putting focus and thought into your activities, everybody benefits from one’s mindfulness. So, while it may sound selfish, it’s not; it’s simply using your brain to contribute to the community. Really, I need to do that.

Lately, I’ve said things, things I knew were not wholly factual, and have regretted making those statements. Misinformation is a root of evil, and I don’t want to be the conductor of such malevolence. Many ill-fated endeavors occur when careless words spur others into ignorant actions. And I don’t want to rally the misguided. That’s for sure.

So working on mindfulness, and not plowing through the world on autopilot, is a huge undertaking of mine. With my routine filled day, it’s going to be a huge monster to tackle. Yet, I must, and I can, accomplish this important goal.

Have an excellent day!!
