The World We Live In (not my reality)

How distracted do you find your self as you go through the day? As you brush your teeth you find your self thinking about what did not do yesterday and need to get done to day. Or about how you are going to pay the bills this next week. Then it is off to work where you spend time day dreaming about all the your hopes and dreams that have passed you by or seem so out of reach.

Does this sound like you? What about all the signs the want you to consume this buy that. Every where you look someone is pulling at you to come here, try this, what about that. You can not remember the last time that you and your wife set down and just talked like friends.

This is our world, a world of distractions. The art of one pointed ness, single mindedness has long since been forgotten. If you really want to enjoy the things you do and the relationships you have. You must find a way to keep your mind focused.

This is the art of meditation. Through the daily practice of meditation you can begin to take back your mind. To make it focus on the things you want. So much of your suffering comes to us because we are so distracted. Begin to day to develop the art of single mindedness and take back your life.

If you are interested in my form of meditation you can read the entry in my blog titled The Tools to Create the Life You Want.

Peace and Love
