We tend to avoid situations we find uncomfortable or difficult, and many times we will overburden ourselves with other responsibilities just to avoid an unpleasant task. All this does is make us even more tired and more stressed than before, and the unfavorable task is still waiting. In fact, many times the job left waiting for us becomes even more dreadful in our minds because now we not only have the unfinished business hanging over us, but the anticipation of it builds up its own kind of stress.Procrastination, which is directly related to avoidance, also causes mental clutter. Whenever you leave a job undone, you are going to have a nagging voice in your head constantly reminding you of the unfinished business. You will also feel physical stress until you just dig in and get the job done.Avoidance prevents us from using good time management techniques and usually costs us hours in wasted time.

It might get you attention for a while but that's about it. You lose in the long run. I should know. I've been through this before. Instead of allowing your sorrows to pool, do something about it. Do you really want to be sad forever? Being unhappy won’t achieve anything. It might get you attention for a while but that’s about it. You lose in the long run. I should know.

Not always simple but too often our brain is pre-set to 'auto-pilot' and we simply go through the motions. We do (think, choose, react, behave, communicate) today exactly as we did yesterday, even though yesterday sucked. With the right attitude I know that even if I'm in the same situation as yesterday, today will be a more enjoyable, productive and fun day because I will be different in that situation. By choice.

I've been running around lately with the many pulls of daily demands that I've forgotten to slow down and to reconnect with myself. I really need to do that and get into a regular meditation routine. :) What's your Meditation routine Albert? Thank you for the reminder Albert!
