The busy modern life rarely gives us a chance to reflect on our life and where it is headed. We end up locked in a never ending circle of responding to whatever is sent our own way without taking any initiative of our own; without making any tangible move towards our own goals.
So, let us create some space.
You can set out of your house at 5AM or thereabout and take a stroll through your neighbourhood. You do not take your mobile phone along, no music or entertainment or anything (I recommend you take your ID card along and maybe a flashlight). Just get on the move, a walk during which you can ponder and think deeply on various issues especially fundamental ones such as “what is the one thing I want to do with my life that will make a difference in the life of others?”
The answers might not come on the first day.
The answers might not come during the first week.
But, if you remain consistent, you will soon get into a flow.
That early morning walk without all the distractions your mind is subjected to during the day will surely do you a lot of good, regardless of who you are.
N.B.
No, you cannot do it inside your house. Sooner or later, you get distracted!
