My Journey
Hey everyone, hope you all are doing okay. Well it's me again and I just want to share how I started my meditation journey and how it is going right now.
I started my meditation journey when it was just something random to me. Random in a way that I never did something like this ever in my life and I wanted to experience how it feels to just sit down and focus on your breathing. I started it on 19th of February and I started doing it for 5 minutes daily. The thing there is discipline and consistency. I did it every day without even breaking or leaving it once.
When I started it was messy. I can't focus and I used to think about a lot of things but I let my thoughts move around my head and whenever I get a chance I just start telling my brain to focus on my breathing style so it just went and went and went. After some time, like after 20 or 25 days, I started decreasing the time because I feel like that 5 minutes was a lot for me so I started doing it for 2 minutes and I'm still doing it till now for 2 minutes. The thing that matters here is consistency that I have been doing it every day.
In the starting it was messy. In the middle I used to be like "fear" a lot, like if I close my eyes something will happen to me or something will come near me or stuff like this. It just went away with time. It still comes but it went away when I start focusing.
A very beautiful thing I have been noticing from two or three days is that whenever I'm meditating, even if it's some loud noise around me, I can still feel my breathing. I can still hear my breathing so the thing is that I notice. The thing is that consistency matters even if it's what 10 minutes daily, even if it's for 1 hour daily, even if it's for 2 hours daily. The thing is that consistency matters. Do it every day even if it's difficult; do it and do it.
If you are trying to leave social media, leave it and be consistent with it. Okay just open it up once a week or twice a week and then again leave it. If you're trying to reset your dopamine, start eating good, start going to the gym, get a job. If you just are a lazy person who's at home all the time, start meditating, start journaling, and just start getting better. Man, you will see a difference but you have to delay gratification. If you can not delay gratification, you can not get successful in these things, in my opinion.
Failure isn't only in business or isn't only in finance. Even if you start something in life, if you leave it to again get into bad habits, but you again start again and you again try to get better, here you get again, fail, get better again, fail again, get better. The thing is that you are failing but you are trying again and when you try again, second, third, fourth time, you will start getting better.
During my journey of leaving social media and getting on the better path, I failed a lot but I got better and this is one of the things that matter to me the most. I'm still on the path of getting better and I still have a lot of bad habits inside me but the thing that matters to me is I tried to start getting better.
