Don’t worry, no day is wasted. Everything is simply part of your evolution. There’s no need to feel guilty, nor to feel stressed. The main thing is to pay attention to what’s allowing you to develop your skills. By the way, there are no worthwhile skills that develop in a day. Skills develop slowly, but they are perhaps the most important of your evolutionary truths. Your skills are how you put forth your best effort in all things, and I’m not just talking about playing the piano, or being a terrific speaker, or starting a business. I’m talking about all of your skills, including working on being the best person you could possibly be!
There is an art to everything. The very act of living is an art. How artful are you about your living? Think about it, you have relationship skills, communication skills, creative skills, and so on. How about working on one of them right now? How about working on your skills in paying attention. Are you reading carefully, or are you just skimming these words? Go back and do it again to really read with attentiveness.
You can develop any skill just by paying attention to what’s in front of you. Perhaps you need to work on the art of resting. Being good at resting requires some deep breaths, focus on the “OK-ness” of the moment, and to just soak it all in. Perhaps you could develop your skills in tidying up your place, or preparing your meals with better precision. Just today, you could improve and develop five skills. No-one does the same thing all day everyday. There are so many skills to work on. Don’t sell yourself short. There is something that needs improving today, and it’s skill-based. With a little thought, you could put that knowledge to great use right now! You’re evolving – no day is wasted.
