Every day I live the precious moments and reflect on my experience from time to time. There are so many things to share yet I am too greedy and selfish to stop and share them. Why? I´m greedy because time is gold with wings and could fly by. The being-in-the-moment idea seems more attractive than stop-login-and-blog activity. That in a way will make me appear selfish but what can you do about it.
Life is easier and simplier with less choices. Imagine you have a rack of cornflake with thousands of varieties. Would you still want to buy it? How long would you take to look and choose? Seriously, for the time it takes, it´s so much more worthwhile for me to skip the rack and just buy organic muesli. Freedom is Prada, nice to have but could be too much and burdening if not well utilized. So being constantly aware of my preference and consciously decision making process allows me to focus on what matters and what´ll make my time well spent. That prevents me from spending 30 minutes on deciding on a box of cornflakes.
Keeping life simple, do what matters, don´t get greedy and naively asking for everything in the world. Quoting a Dutch saying I just learned yesterday, that is like turning a mosquito into an elephant.
There goes the ranting while I patiently ( or not ) wait for Barry Schwartz´s youtube video load in full. What he talked about just resonates to me.
Happy Thanks Giving - like it matters to me¿
