By remaining present, in-the-moment and aware I opened\u00a0myself to amazing insights. I used to be surprised at unexpected lessons. Now I know they\u2019re always there and it\u2019s my responsibility to spot them. I\u2019m doing a 30 day challenge right now where I write down a lesson of the day at the end of each day.

Accept whatever pops up.<\/p>\n
Keep track of\u00a0lessons –just for fun.<\/p>\n
