Small steps toward being better

posted in Uncategorized |

From time to time, you will come across a nugget of information that needs to be filed. Advice to oneself if you will. This morning in a lecture I caught that we should try to make ourselves more interesting to ourselves. There’s a lot in that sentence. If you have ever tried to become self-educated that was actually your goal. If you have tried to explain something to others that is part of the goal. Go ahead. Take a few moments and try to remember what you did yesterday that would be of interest to you and to someone else. Got something? I am not inviting you to become a self-introspective person. Rather I just want you to know that knowledge is worthwhile. Even trivia. After all the program jeopardy is based on that one idea and look how far that is taken a whole group of people. There are so many ways to learn new things. If you’re a musical, learn a new song. If you are artistic, create something new. If you simply hang around the house, make sure that the house feels more comfortable than it did when you started. Tiny steps. When we had a dog, certain things were easier. Dogs are very easy to entertain. When you are in a classroom you have already an audience. But once you start living a semi solitary life, you have to make those moments for yourself and develop parameters to measure your own progress. Otherwise, long term, you cannot remain interesting. To yourself or to others. Am I going to learn to juggle? Probably not but the concept could be entertaining for myself and others. Just thoughts. When you stop thinking then you hit bottom.
