When you get into a weekly routine of sorts, it’s kind of easy to lose a state of mindfulness. Some things become so second-nature that there’s no need to analyze the task at hand in fine detail anymore. Mindlessness spreads easily if left unchecked. In all honesty, I kind of feel like I’ve gotten to one of those points where I’m far too caught up with the routine that I’ve lost focus. It at such a time that I need to step back and reassess things. I’m not even talking about a broad “How am I doing” type of question, because that’s just far too big to tackle. I think the big question that I need to ponder is: what is important to me? And what can I do to make sure those things continue to have a place in my life?
If I think about it, there are some gut responses that I can spit out right away. That’s fine. However, I have to analyze and dig deeper. Why are these things important? Am I holding onto these things for the right reasons? Are they helping me advance or improve myself? I’m not going to list any of these things out just yet, but I suppose they could make for some interesting blog posts.
I really need to take stock of my life; it’s important for everyone to do so at this age. I’m getting close to 30. Sure, I still have a little over a year to go, but the fact that the milestone is off in the distance just makes me want to sit and analyze. I need to make sure that my foundation is rock solid so that I have the freedom to explore later on, right? Anything that’s no longer useful needs to be trimmed, and that’s only possible if I have a good feel for where my values and concerns are.
