Day 003 - Stop. Ponder. Prioritize. Breakfast, work, meetings, more work, home, dinner & sleep are only a routine. And once life becomes a routine, it often becomes mindless & mundane. There is more to life than routine. Examine it - without pretense, without judgement, without force. Be aware of the course life takes, make choices and be one with those choices. Over time, old choices become routine again. Stop. Ponder. Prioritize. More money, bigger role, larger home are desires, not goals. Yet, chasing them is one of those things that happen anyway. Life has a sneaky knack of slipping by while we race to meet society's expectations. Stop. Ponder. Prioritize. Social media plays a huge role in lifestyle choices. Trends & fads cry for attention from every corner while the subconscious mind absorbs it all. And without awareness of how they influence decisions & choices, we fall prey to these very fads, truly believing it to be our true selves. Take time to examine these choices. Stop. Ponder. Prioritize. I find myself at a unique juncture. I stood my ground. And while standing for what I believed in, life still went by, much as I fought it, with little regard for what I wanted. And I fell prey to all that I didn't want. Stop. Ponder. Prioritize. . . . . . #day003 #365daysofnotsurewhat #bhatofcourse #brainunfreeze #create #sketch #writing #thoughts #sketchformythoughts #awareness #mindfulness (at Shilpa Park)
