So I have a little challenge for you.
For one day,
Just one day,
Go without input.
No social media,
No music,
No YouTube or podcasts or books.
Just one day where you fully embrace the silence.
Where you turn off all distractions and return back to the present moment.
Just one day where you purposely switch off,
Turn inwards and focus on your life as it is for what it is.
If this sounds terrifying or impossible or even just somewhat difficult,
That's a sign that you really should give it a try.
Because we didn't evolve to have such level of continuous inputs at our disposal.
It's possible to go the whole day,
The entire day,
Consuming information.
Having information,
Sound,
Words,
Something coming in all the time.
Now it's good if we do some silent meditation,
But what if we extend that?
So I encourage you,
Give it a try.
Take an entire day off and let me know what you discover.
Because I know that every time I take a day off,
I see and learn things about myself and about the world that were previously blocked,
That I didn't have access to.
That the absolute overwhelm of noise was clouding and I never regret the experience.
Because all of those notifications,
All of those podcasts,
All of those videos,
They're right there waiting for me the very next day.
So give it a try and let me know.
Good luck.
