* How can we be with our family 100% when the office tension is pounding in the hidden corner of your brain?
* How can we be with our studies 100% when we are irritated and thinking bad thoughts of parents who have troubled us to study?
Years ago when I attended a training session, they asked us to close our eyes and focus on the voices in our head. Its not easy but as the seconds passed, and the silence around was intense, i slowly started to hear my inner voices. And it was not one. It was a thousand voices.
"What is this guy asking us to do?"
"What am I doing here?"
"This is so stupid"
"Have I paid my phone bill?"
"Can I ask that cute girl out for coffee?"
"Maybe she has a boyfriend?"
"Do I have enough money to last the week?"
"When did I last call my mother?"
"I wonder what they have for dinner at the hostel today?"
And so on and on and on and on and on........
There is so much activity in the brain that we lose focus of what we are doing currently and move on to the next. As a result we do everything half heartedly and just for the sake of completing it. There is no chance for Being With anything, nor for the 100% in it.
Life passes you by so fast that before you know it you will miss out on so much unless you start putting your soul and heart into whatever you do and be with that 100%.Give your all out when you play with the kids...dont let your office tensions come in between.
Give your 100% when you spend time with your family...its your most prized possession.
Give your full focus and passion at the office...its where you earn your bread.
Give your love to your friends...they will love you as much as you do.
Look up once in a while and thank God for the wonderful moments you have been given in this life. BE WITH the God above for a few moments. You will find peace and the strength to face what comes after. And the faith to move mountains...with ease.
And never forget...find the time to BE WITH yourself too. You deserve it.
