Had a really challenging time today… felt agitated, impatient, and totally uninterested in bowing. I noticed that I hadn’t selected a focus, and I wondered if the lack of purpose for this session had anything to do with my lack of inspiration. This then got me thinking about my purpose for this training in general (which was primarily to build my discipline) and what my purpose(s) for my next training(s) will be. While it was definitely helpful to ponder the what and why of my future trainings, I realized that doing so wasn’t going to do squat to reduce the challenge and discomfort of the current one.
In other words: I really need to attend to my present training.
I know that the meat of any practice lies in its bumps. Our most rapid growth occurs when we’re out of our comfort zone. So, maybe rather than turning a blind eye to the discomfort of my current practice, I could stand to embrace it, even be grateful for it, because I know it will help me grow. And that’s what this is all about, isn’t it?
