I haven't heard of Jack Canfield before but this was a great 10 minute clip. I loved all 6 tips that he gave but the 2 that resonated with me the most were: #1- be aware of your thoughts. and #2- make a conscious effort to enjoy where you are, no matter where that is. With my yoga training and other PD courses that I've been taking, I've tried to be more in the moment, to be aware of not only how my body is feeling but where my thoughts are. I am a multitasker, to a fault. So when I'm doing a PD class, or a zoom meeting, I will remind myself to stay in the moment, to be present. If I don't, my thoughts begin to wander and I'm not taking in what is going on right now in the moment. As far as the 2nd tip- I have found that this relaxes me in situations that could be stressful, but that I also have no control over. Last night while driving to a comedy show, a rock hit my windshield resulting in a nice chip and microfractures. Initially, I was shocked and upset, but then I had to let it go. There was nothing that I could do in that moment and I can't reverse time so I had to accept that I would just have to call the car insurance company tomorrow to have it fixed. I moved on and was thinking about the show I was headed to. It has taken time for me to let some of these kind of things go. It's healthier for me rather than ruminating on something that I can't change.
