Whether you’re looking to meditate, workout, or learn a new skill set, embarking on a long journey can feel daunting. The fear of the unknown, coupled with the anticipation of obstacles may even prevent you from starting in the first place. This is why it is helpful to break down a lengthy journey into manageable daily tasks. Here are some tips that might help: 1️⃣ Set Clear Goals: Determine your end goal to guide task prioritization and outline key milestones. 2️⃣ Prioritize Tasks: Rank milestones by urgency and importance. The Pareto principle states that 20% of the tasks you do will equate to 80% of the results you get. 3️⃣ Set Deadlines: Set deadlines for daily or weekly tasks to maintain momentum. Again, the Pareto principle suggests that 80% of tasks are completed in the final 20% of allotted time. 4️⃣ Track Progress and Reflect: Monitor advancements regularly, reflect on the process, and adjust accordingly to stay on track. Movie clips: The Lord of the Rings (fun fact: JRR Tolkien, author or The Lord of the Rings, called Sam the “chief hero” of the trilogy).

Here & Now ☀️ Consider this: Has there ever been a moment in your life that was not here and now? If this is not recognized, there is death. If it is, there is life. Through meditation, the concepts of past and future, along with the identities associated with them, fade away. What remains is reality beyond concept. Life itself. #life #present #now #here #hereandnow #eternal #eternity #meditate #meditation #meditating #gift #freedom #enlightenment #nirvana #love #god #moment #buddha #buddhanature

The greatest gift I can offer anyone is the encouragement to begin their own meditation practice. Actually starting and continuing a meditation routine, however, can be difficult for 3 main reasons. 1️⃣ It can be frustrating continuously getting lost in thought. But like any skill set, you improve with dedicated daily practice. 2️⃣ It’s hard to tell whether you are doing it correctly. This can be overcome by following guided meditations by a trusted instructor. 3️⃣ It’s challenging to build the habit. This can be overcome by habit stacking. Identify an already established habit in your day and practice meditation immediately prior to or after the established habit.
