I have it and dyslexia. My quality of life is worth my attention moment by moment. The exercise is staying in the moment, and that is the game of life.
A lovely echo to the way I feel about our Encouragement Manifesto ... not a job but purposeful and shaped up in my head; no specific ambitions but a sense of growing a community by demonstrably living by the values.
The line about "need(ing) to have fun as I go" really chimed
Yes, I am speaking to what interrupts the lovely flow state. My normal life is flow. I get lost in the humdrum duties and time is not. That’s the game. When my fun of the game is interrupted, I realize I am not having fun anymore…hmmmm….inhale…by this mindful action of pausing, I choose a different station, I choose food, whatever, but I choose a different frequency or path. I go with that mindfully and see how I like it. Degree by degree adjustments will help me find that flow again. And I will find it but it’s never more than 3 degrees either way from me. My game, my way. Nod to Source, Merry Christmas 🎁 and to All Traditions, Peace ✌🏽 🪷🎶🙏❤️
I have ADHD so sometimes I unintentionally unhurry when I should be more hurry lol
How relatable. 😅
Me too, Jill! Don't you just love it when you set out to accomplish a thing and then you accomplish 75 other things instead?
I DO love that! It’s magic!

I'm usually deep into the moment. The problem is it's often a different moment than the one I need to be in.

Thank you! I love what you two are doing.
Thank you so much for saying, Jeff ... that means a lot.
I feel stress when I lose myself in the doing.🪷
When I think of losing myself in the doing, I think of getting into a lovely flow state where time passes unnoticed because I'm engrossed in the work.
I'm guessing you are talking about something different here – maybe getting overwhelmed by busy-ness?

I see the problem and solution, stay in the moment. But you know that. It’s in the being that the doing stops, though the body follows through.
