I’ve gotten into the very good habit lately of asking myself throughout the day if I am focused on what is really important.
This habit is easy to learn.
I simply stop what I am doing, take a breath and then ask myself the question.
Am I focused on what’s most important right now?
Most of the time I find that I am not focused on what is important. I find myself getting milked by another on the phone, distracted by text messages or simply on autopilot working through the day.
Yet I know that I can catch myself. So, If I find that I am concentrating on something that isn’t in line with what is important, I reset and start again. It feels like one long ride of falling and getting up again, but I know that training my mind over and over again will eventually let it sink in.
Staying focused on what is important to you. It is a very good habit to start.
Train yourself to listen to your heart so that you know what’s true and important, and what is not.

Good post, Madeline!
Though, looking back, I notice that what seemed so important, at the time, has also led me astray.

This line “And a heart craves
thought
