FOCUS: Avoid Attention Vampires Through Practicing Mindfulness
Have you ever experienced “app amnesia”? Do you ever start out the day with a specific goal that supports your higher purpose then fall victim to distraction? I do. Earlier today I re-activated my Facebook account using my cell phone while waiting for a flight back home from LA and spent nearly 2 full hours “re-connecting” with the growing digital pull for my attention! I had plans to finish a new book I am reading but that idea vaporized. For the record, I am a BIG fan of technology. I know it will continue to grow and change our society at an exponential rate regardless of how I feel. We still can’t allow ourselves to fall victim to our modern day “attention vampires.”
Meta-Learning: How to Become a General Systems TheoristLife is but a system. A closed system that has so many variables that the human mind sees it as an open system. But even if the human mind cannot comprehend the system itself, does not mean it doesn’t exist. As an underlying current in nearly all aspects of life that, it is taken for granted and remains unseen to many. This is the idea of general systems, general systems theory, and general systems thinking. Although it is a simple concept that can become infinitely complex. It is used to identify and understand everything that man has come to interact with. Therefore, if one fully comprehends the ideas emplaced in general systems theory, it will allow them to have a foundation to understand everything else.
Exploring The MindsetHuman beings, either consciously or subconsciously, drift in the areas of mindset to explore its potentials. It is the inquisitive nature of human beings to evaluate the values attached to the mindset. Intriguing, because it is the human nature to probe the unknown and explore. Thereby, it generates interest, which becomes curious to understand its values. An important point we generally ignore is the face value of the person or situation in any given environment. The perception is either deceptive or factual is subject to influences we experience. Here, the volatility and stability are directly proportional to the experience of person and maturity. It means the variation of opinion to existing situation is the prove of evaluation between the two extremes.
Conscious WisdomLife is but a short journey for us all. We are blessed to be able to realise our inner journey and make the difference we came onto this earth plane to make. There is no limit to consciousness as we are all instruments of both the body and the soul for our own evolvement and self-discovery. Understanding your own real and authentic self, deep down inside, that all knowing and all loving part of you that is here to do just that by support you to fulfil your purpose in this lifetime.
The Realistic AttitudeThe most powerful thing for good or bad we can have, is an attitude. A good attitude that searches for the good in everything is realistic. Seeing evil in all things and projecting pessimistic evil onto everything is not. Indeed, the above two statements after my first sentence could simply be seen as a simple opinion, but as I will explain, reality as well as learning from experiences and understanding is simply an attitude.
