We approach a new year. We make promises and commitments to ourselves. But how many of us consider learning to be more content? Yet we all desire it in our daily lives. Dont we? At the end of the day what we did matters. Not to others but to each one of us. So today I want to discuss how we can learn to be more content in our lives. It will take honest in depth soul searching from your side.
1 Consider what is important.
Remeber what is important to you. What is it that you want to do? How do you want to spend your time. What exactly is it that you want to accomplish?
2. Consider the commitments you make.
Do you find that your life is just to busy? That you try doing everything while ending up exhausted in the process? Then start by accepting that you can not do everything. Leave the less important commitments and focus on the more important commitments.
3. Learn to do less every day
Learn to leave time after each appointment. Dont try make appointments back to back. If you do that you end up more stressed and you will feel rushed. You will end up doing less than you planned and you wont feel good at the end of the day. By leaving time between each appointment you will be able to be more focused and relaxed.
4. Consider leaving many things from your to do list.
Learn to simplify your to do list just down to the essentials. By doing this you will be able to slow down feeling more relaxed. Slow down and enjoy each task you take on. It is good to focus on the task no matter what it is. Also it is good to pay attention to each task you want to take on.
5. Live in the moment
It may seem easy to do but you may find it is challenging. So remind yourself to live in the moment. Unless of course ot means pain. That isn't an option and nothing to be enjoyed.
6. Focus on each task
What ever it is you are doing . Make sure it is one thing at a time. If driving enjoy the journey. Take the time to enjoy the journey. Don't be rushed to reach your destination.
7. Remove stress from your life
Find out what cause tension and stress in your life and try to eliminate them. Just don't do anything. Yes. Make time for you. It is your time to recover from your day and what ever caused stress. This is the time you use to find your balance again.
8. Learn to focus on the present moment.
Do things that you find pleasurable. Don't delay on things that make you feel it is all worth it. Make the time now and stop thinking maybe later. Time waits for no one.
These are suggestions that can make us feel content. At the end of the day when you are relaxing and getting ready to sleep. What you feel and think matters. Living life rushing means you lose out on the beauty of the moment. The thing to remember you don't get the moment back again.
