Motivational review
- Look for moments in your life when you were fully present. Assess their value?
Examine your encounters:
- Are you prepared to be present in them?
- Are you prepared to be open?
- Are you prepared to be welcoming?
Think about changes:
- Consider the encounter you could improve
- What would you do differently?
- Notice: as you become clear about the changes you’d like top make, they will effortlessly occur.
Practice being in the moment:
- Quiet the mind
- Live in the senses
- Listen
- Be the person you’d like to be with
