Ordinary Days

Today might be a regular day. Nothing will stand out. Nothing will be extraordinary. I used to think that was so boring, constantly chasing a feeling of inspiration. But that chase can feel very depressing. It leads me to scroll through my phone, look in my fridge, and get otherwise distracted.

Today, if I start getting antsy, I want to remind myself that I am practicing living. When I go on a bike ride today, I’m practicing being a bike rider. When I make my meals, I’m practicing cooking. None of it has to be the best I’ve ever done. No outcomes need to shift or alter my perception in profound ways. I’m practicing being the person I want to continue being.

ACTION: Observe your actions today. Ask yourself: “What kind of person am I practicing being through these actions?”
