Peaceful Warrior: Here and Now

Quote:
Take out the trash.  The trash is anything that's keeping you from what matters - here, now.  And when you truly are in the here and now you'll be truly amazed at what you can do and how well you can do it.

Today's task:
In your period 7/8 class, or sometime over the weekend, be truly present in the here and now.

  • What was the experience like?  
  • What was different than how things normally are?  
  • Was it difficult to keep "the trash" out of your mind?  
  • Do you think it takes practice to be able to do this?  
  • Is there anything else you'd like to share?  Did you make any other observations?


Reminders:
When you leave your comment, be sure to write using complete sentences and correct punctuation.  Be honest with your responses and share your experience based on the questions above.  I hope you will ask some questions of your own, or talk about other observations you've made.

For any visitors who are joining us on our journey, please refer to Dan Millman's Peaceful Warrior to understand the above quote.  Your questions and comments are welcome, but if you comment on the quote, please be sure to have read and contemplated the relative reading before doing so.  Thank you.

I'm looking forward to reading your comments!

Sincerely,
Mrs. Murphy

Hmmm... In COLOR!

Peter, one of our mentors, doodled this while listening to Larry speak.  Ah, to think in such vibrance!  

Well, guess what kiddos... it's time for you to do the same!  Remember, this next trimester it's up to YOU to follow your North Star and be TRUE to yourself!
