Other than the time it takes to take the picture of the watch featured above, and finish the various media download and upload which is inevitably associated with that… this post took 5 minutes to write. \u00a0Mom had a great technique for getting us to help clean up (after dinner, before guests came over, etc), by telling us she needed ten honest minutes. \u00a0No joke, just 10 minutes spent doing nothing but cleaning in your assigned room. \u00a0Pick up ‘buzzard roosts’, straighten books and other stuff left strewn about, put away the dishes: Didn’t matter what you were cleaning or picking up, just do only that for ten minutes and we were released to whatever other stuff we wanted to go do.<\/p>\n
It’s amazing how much we forget that we’re capable of when we are constantly ‘too little butter smeared over too much bread’, as it were. \u00a0We as humans have an amazing capacity for focused thought, intuition, and creative expression when the extra stuff we’re ‘working on’ or ‘thinking about’ get stripped away. \u00a0Try it yourself: Take 10 minutes and just work in 1 room. \u00a0Pick up the out of place things and put them where they’re supposed to go. \u00a0Clean up, straighten up, and otherwise just set stuff in order. \u00a0And at the 10 minute point, stop. \u00a0I think you might be amazed at the level of ‘clean’ which can be accomplished in that sort of time.<\/p>\n
Just like the amount of ‘clean thought’ I can put on a page in 5 minutes. \u00a0Time is up. \u00a0Off to other things for the day.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
