When I commit to sitting daily, then I experience discipline and order. I find myself being less reactive to what is going on around me. My life becomes calmer and focused. I am committed to sit daily - no matter what.
When I read, discuss and listen to others on this journey, then I uncover guidance and insight to improve my sitting experience. I find other people who are on the same journey and are having similar challenges. I reach out to others on a regular basis. I share my experiences.
When I remain present in the moment, I free up the mind to explore, to be curious, to accept whatever life situation exists. Then my mind can perceive it as it is, not as I would wish it to be. I practice staying present.
It isn't the amount of years, days or hours we meditate that makes meditation successful. It is what we put into it at every moment.
