Focusing On What Matters Most
"Last year I focused on things I wanted more of in my life and I particularly worked on diligence and kindness." ~ Your fellow meditator Jennifer from Cardiff, Wales, UK Are you finding it hard to get things done these days? If so, you're not alone. Living during a pandemic is an extenuating situation that is incredibly taxing. It takes a lot of mental stamina. You may find your freshly created new year's goals slipping away. In this week's series, you'll discover ways to manage procrastination and to re-commit to your goals to live your best year yet. This is day 6 of a 7-day Procrastination meditation series, episodes 2201-2206. THIS WEEK'S CHALLENGE: You're invited to take part in a Commitment Quest. You're encouraged to ask yourself a question every day as you sit down to meditate. Each day's question will be released on each episode this week, so be sure to listen in for each question! The questions are designed to help you feel motivated to commit to whatever you've been procrastinating.
