Dealing with Distraction

Distractions abound and pull me in so many different directions at once.  Sometimes they prevent me from taking time to know what I need or feel, sometimes they eat up my time so responsibilities get set aside, sometimes my head is spinning so much that I lose touch with my sense of purpose and direction.  Today, I will breathe and attend to one thing at a time.  I will focus on being present in the moment and tune down the dial on the noisy chatter of my monkey brain.  I am here and now.  It is from this grounded and centered space I choose to move forward into this new day.  Ah, silence.  It is good to be here.
