So what i am learning with my psychologist is the art of mindfulness and this is to help focus on one thing and not let your mind be distracted by outside things.
Its hard work, my mind wanders constantly and it takes a great effort to actually keep it focused on one thing and truly focus on that one thing
I sit here and i try to focus on purely typing this blog but then i look at my phone and wonder what the time is and then start thinking maybe i should get moving and go shower and then suddenly realize my mind has wandered and bring it back to the blogging. Hard work i tell ya.
I am going to try and do it with simple things and just enjoy the moment of what i am doing.
Drinking tea, i am going to focus on my tea and how it tastes and just focus on that for at least 5 minutes - i think if i start off small i may be more likely and able to follow through.
And for me when i can't do it or i lose interest of focus or reasoning i suddenly think its cos i am a useless person and no wonder i can't do it - I have to do things perfect EVERY time otherwise i feel like i failure.
so this "mindfulness" task that I am to practice could prove to be interesting and possibly detrimental to my health :/
