Why it's time to slow down

A person can begin a different way of life (when in reality, this means only a return to once lost), slowing your pace and ritualizoval his life. But that does not mean the introduction of compulsive neurotic repetition in your daily routine, and self-conscious performance of any action: whether it be eating, combing hair or painting.

Conscious approach incurs a slowdown. In our days the word "slow" is rather a negative response, when in fact "slow" can mean high-quality, deep, deliberate. Time and life in the metropolis requires us quick results in a short time, in most cases multi-tasking. The computer starts to run slower and overheat when running multiple programs with heavy files; of course our brain is a supercomputer, but it is not necessary to overestimate their own capabilities, if we want to be truly happy people. Think about it, in a turn of the wheel to make money, bars, shops, new things, cafes, concerts and cinema, are you able to see how one season changes another, to observe how the flowers bloom on the trees, plant some plants with my own hands? To spend time with my family, to do something for society? To sit in silence at least 10 minutes? If Yes, then you are doing really well. But often, paying more attention to the Affairs of our way of life in the metropolis, are we missing something more eternal and beautiful.

Think about it: most of us and our friends there is a constant desire to go to some other place to relax and gain new experiences. Travel is great, and it would be silly to say anything against it, but how many of these people make an effort to produce some changes in the place where they live? All of this seems endless escape from themselves: people leave unchanged its base and seek to bring into your life happiness from the outside, but acting in this way is it possible to get out of this series of successive labor stress and then escapes to the Islands? Why people came to such a structure of life – extreme stress and then extreme relaxation? Many people operating under the scheme will be able to answer the question in what direction they move and how they see life, if we reject all the selfish aspirations and desires of material goods or services? Which car can travel long distances and to last longer: the one that stutters, at first rushing, then braking, or that whose motion is uniform?

To admit their mistakes is very difficult, especially when you acted on one and the same pattern for many years: in the mind has already formed a track which is easy and comfortable to drive, and to go with them and begin to blaze new, you need to put a lot of effort. But we all have to admit that it's time to change. If we maintain this way of life, and how they managed the last century, mankind will inevitably come to ruin and it will happen very soon. Future generations will hate us for our irresponsibility and lack of foresight in relation to Land.

We live in a now moment, but not in the sense that we live one day and can therefore afford the destructive trends in relation to themselves and indifference to the world, irresponsible consumption and waste, but rather – to be as deliberate in his every action. This does not mean that you need to become obsessed, but it does mean that you need to be more attentive to yourself and nature.

• meditate
• get out into nature
• turn off the phone
• distribute the load evenly
• be more attentive to yourself and the world

We need to stop waiting when someone will do something for us, we need to stop being afraid that someone might interfere with our plans, get involved, and you will see how magically the world around you will begin to change. published
