Week four was a little frustrating. I did not make as much progress as I had hoped too. My kindle’s screen cracked, stopping my reading progress while I sorted that out. My 2DS aggravated my hands and wrists, stopping my gaming progress and also my script writing. Frustrating. Very frustrating…
…deep breath…
…So, I focused on slowing down. Focused on remembering that most of my stress is self-inflicted. A gap forms between what I think should occur and what actually occurs. Slowing down allows me to start pruning back expectations. Snip, snip, snip and calmness returns. Ultimately I come to this thought: What was the original intention of the Two x Twos exercise? Was it to achieve a box of accomplishments, powering through a to-do list? Was it to enrich your life by exposure to these wonderful creations and what ever magic may be etched inside? The latter obviously. Then lets work towards that and if it takes a while, it takes a while.
