Focused Writing

As a daily practice, write:

1. 3 No’s – three things in your last 24 hours’ awareness that are a “no” for you – that you wish to exclude with healthy boundary practices
2. 3 Yes’s – three things in your last 24 hours’ awareness that are a “yes” for you – that you wish to receive, experience more of, or affiliate with
3. 3 Gratitudes – three things you are grateful for, and breath for a moment while abiding in the gratitude
4. 3 Goals + Motivations – 3 things big or small you are working towards, and the feeling that motivates those
5. Learning Practice – One to 3 current skills or states you are learning via practice. Imagine doing the practice for a few breaths so you strengthen your resolve to physically do it the following day
6. Musings – any musings on what you’ve perceived, read, experienced, expressed or synthesized – inspirations, connections, cognitions, synthesis

This writing can be brief or at length, as time and inspiration allow.
It will create a sense of simultaneous personal agency and interconnection, continuity in your other practices, and intentionality in your day to day living and acquisition of skills and experiences.
Write by hand on paper wherever possible, the increased sense of agency, increased physical effect in the world, and improved short-term memory of intentional goals and tasks will be substantial.
