The idea of doing something once a day has been hitting me from all sides lately. First, as I told you earlier, my friend Linda Dee got me into taking a photo a day last spring, and now into writing something once a day. Over a year ago another friend gave me, as a gift, the same meditation book she was using and I read a page a day. On a recent tv show a woman was making a dress a day for one dollar each – 365 dresses for $365. The movie Julia and Julia was about making a recipe a day for one year. When I was a teacher, one of the teaching techniques I firmly believed in was “5 seconds once a day instead of 30 minutes once a week”. I believe anyone can learn anything if they do it for a few minutes a day, everyday.
So, there obviously has to be something to this concept. Low n behold the message in my morning meditation is about discovering what interests you.
“Begin a journey of discovery.
Find out what interests you.
Listen to yourself for a few days,
for a few weeks. Discover what
stimulates your creative juices.
Then follow that idea through”
I’m thinking that finding something that makes you happy, something you need to do for yourself, and doing it for a few minutes, once a day, will, overtime, grow you and change you and add a new dimension to your life. Hmmmm….another day goes by and….I have written.
