It seems the news and the media spend their time trying to convince us of how we should reflect and how we should re think and change our lifestyles. How we should treat others and how we should treat ourselves. Dieting programs sell like crazy as many of us decided we should lose a couple pounds or were gonna be as slim as a model.
Or maybe we reflect on how we hate our job, and how we wish we were different or we made more money, or were the boss. There are many things we can reflect on as the clock changes to 2013. Well I say that's great, if it motivates you to change your life because a couple of numbers changed than fantastic.
For the rest of us who barely even have time to go to the bathroom, I encourage you to find a couple seconds in the day to stop, to pause, and do nothing. Most likely you don't need to reflect on your year, or think about how you need to change, but rather just need a minute to do nothing. I encourage you to find that beer, or wine, or drink, you love, find that great seat that fits to your back so perfectly, and sit down for a minute or ten, and do nothing.
I myself love to grab a cheap PBR and sit back in a chair on my deck and watch the trees sway in the wind or the birds chip. And there I do my self reflection but most importantly I do my meditation. Meditation doesn't have to involve you wrap you arm around your leg or twisting your body in weird ways, but can be simple as sitting and enjoying yourself. Because if your not enjoying yourself, than working hard to change things probably wont make you feel any better.
