It's one of those things where inertia cuts both ways. Don't beat yourself up for not doing it right; work on the small things, make a habit of it, and step them up when you can.
The worst though is when you get in one of those grooves and then being a parent to a teenager with multiple sports teams and a work schedule that moves around throws it all off the cliff and you're back at square one...
I’m not a parent, but that was basically my experience. I had a really chaotic day yesterday and all my discipline went out the window 🫂
I think it happens to all of us. Definitely me in any case. Be gentle with yourself while beating the will to comfort out of yourself...or something, haha.
Focus is the same when adhering to physical discipline as it is when meditating. The more of a big deal you make of a lapse of focus, the less focused you're being.
Yup and I’ve noticed that I haven’t been having good meditations sessions lately so my focus is off. May need to do some exercises
