Daily Conscious Time

Daily(ˈdālē) Conscious(ˈkän(t)SHəs) Time

Perhaps my #1(number 1) tool for turning profound answers into daily practice is what I call Daily Conscious Time. This is a deliberate(dəˈlib(ə)rət) investment, typically(ˈtipik(ə)lē) 15-30 minutes per day but sometimes an hour or more, to work on alignment(əˈlīnmənt) issues(ˈiSHo͞o).

I usually do this in the form of journaling(ˈjərnl). Here are some of the questions I ask and answer during this time:

Where does my life still feel out of alignment?
What would a stronger alignment look like?
What steps can I take to transition to a stronger alignment?

…

Imagine(iˈmajən) doing this kind of personal growth work almost every day, working through(THro͞o) alignment issues large and small and doing your best to resolve(rəˈzälv) them. You may not always succeed, but in the long run, this persistence(pərˈsistəns) will yield(yēld) a more aligned(əˈlīn) life from top to bottom.

Take these alignment issues seriously(ˈsi(ə)rēəslē). They truly(ˈtro͞olē) matter. These challenges(ˈCHalənj) will test you, and you may feel that life is asking too much of you when it presents you with such a challenge. At first it may even feel like more of a curse(kərs) than a blessing(ˈblesiNG), but when you work through enough of these, you may actually start to welcome them because these are among the richest growth experiences(ikˈspi(ə)rēəns) you’ll encounter(enˈkoun(t)ər) in this life.
