Today I Was Thinking

-
Mindfulness - being selfish, yet kindhearted to ignore everything and everyone else to give yourself some time to think and accept your or one’s thoughts

* our class started this calming strategy I definitely love and know I need everyday, and that is called “Mindfulness Time”
- 60 seconds of quiet time to think, not think, and just calm your thoughts.

* the rest of the class time, we went over our thoughts on the path towards success.
- time management
- future plans
- opinions on future activities

Today, or lately, I’ve been having the feeling of needing to do better. I was stressed and my mind was so worn out, but that “mindfulness time” we spent today helped me look over those bad days, find the anything positive about them, and just convinced myself that everything will be fine as long as I am calm and collected. Panic and stress should not take over me. Although that was only for a minute, that minute caused me to actually do better. As for the new schedule of how we’ll spend our classes every week, I totally support it and I believe that it’s a new way of helping me stay organised.

April 13, 2020 At first, it was a big struggle to adjust into being stuck at home although we usually wish to be able to stay at home. However, this was a struggle because the news slowly hit. My best friends and I were planning to have big fun for the last three days that we had left before the lockdown, but it was cancelled. That fun getting ruined kind of hit us pretty hard because we treated the news as if we were never seeing each other ever again, and basically that’s what happened. As you and probably many know, I started wearing a masks on a daily basis about 2 weeks or more before the lockdown. At the start, the reason for that was “the air”, my parents said. I always had the case of having bad lungs or weak immune system, but not too bad where I needed to have an inhaler with me everywhere. I’ve always been wearing masks when I would live and visit Asia because it is very polluted there. They probably noticed that it’s been smelling like something is being cooked those days...
