Time is 🏃🏽‍➡️ Bookin’ it !

Although a construct … time is going by so fast!

I had this realization as I was looking at the tracking information for a package I ordered. I’ve waited SO patiently for this item and had moments of, What if I don’t receive it? What if it gets lost? Who do I contact for a missing item?

And whilst in the middle of baby panic mode, I took just a quick second to recognize a pattern of mine. The absolute need to be in control. Including what might happen if a package goes missing.

Sometimes we can have this habit of overthinking and over preparing. Thinking 6 steps ahead to avoid unpleasantries in the future.

But let’s pause here; we’re making the present, unpleasant, by worrying about the future! How does that math, math? 🧐

By observing one little detail of our lives and taking a moment to acknowledge a pattern, we already start the process of shifting that loop into a new neuropath in our brain.

(Which is the brain's ability to change and adapt through growth and reorganization; its scientific name is neuroplasticity.)

Creating a safe space for your thoughts without judging them is the first step. Then making conscious decisions to change our reactions in situations that we have previously negatively experienced something is the turning point.

To get there, we just have to live in the present moment with patience and observation.

Although time doesn’t wait for us, we can wait for ourselves and trust the process of life. Taking little steps to make a big change 🧡

As Always, Peace and Much, Much Love
