Since starting Running Minds this year I've been reflecting more.
Where I've grown and what I've changed over the last several years.
Here are a few things that I wish I'd learned earlier.
1. Spending quality time alone. Walk, explore, travel workout, be bored. It's the single best way to process & understand ourselves better.
2. Focusing on health. Quality health makes everything else in life better. It's the table that everything else sits on. With good health we are already rich.
3. The best way to get out our own head is to help someone else. Often with the same problem we're stuck on. Not only is it kind but its one of the best ways to reduce our own stress, worry & anxiety. Service.
4. Enjoying the process. Goals are important but nowhere near as much so as the path that takes us there. Be present for it.
5. 99% of problems are outside of our control. Knowing this and acting accordingly makes life a ton easier - and better!
6. Asking for help or seeing therapist shows strength, not weakness. It's a sign we want to heal or grow not that there is something wrong with us.
7. Make more time with friends. Pick up the phone. Tell them you love them. Keep them on the journey with you. Be on theirs with them.
8. We don't experience life, we experience the life we focus on. Choose wisely.
