I started readingToday We Are Rich (again) yesterday. I’m not quite sure why I had stopped reading it in the first place. In any case, I found myself at a loss to pick it up in the middle, where I hardly remembered the beginning.
From the second chapter, “Awakening.”
What are you not doing today that you were doing? … What investments in yourself and others are you no longer making? What daily or weekly practices for a better you have fallen by the wayside?
These are questions asked to a fellow named Eric when he found himself in a sideways year–no progression at all, whatsoever. I find these questions interesting as it makes me reflect on a lot of things I remember loving to do, but no longer engage in.
What have I stopped doing?.. or do much less of than prior?
- Reading more books
- Writing poetry
- Playing musical instruments: piano, violin, flute, piccolo, saxophone
- Singing
- Taking walks
I wonder why I stopped?.. I don’t think that by not doing these anymore it has put me in a sideways year.. but I think it made me enjoy and appreciate life more. I felt more confident and happy with myself.
I hope this book memories idea starts to take lift.. it’ll let me explore more and more books to only let my mind run crazy and create new writings–I can’t wait! 🙂
