Chapter 84 ★Eight two do nothing

Doing nothing sounds easy, however, I think back to the years of chaotic life, before I practiced simplifying my life, I had endless things to do and never-ending meetings and phone calls from morning till night.Every moment of my day, I've got a full schedule, even my bedtime, oh my!I remember it took me a long time to find a moment where I was doing nothing, and doing nothing was not as easy as it sounds. If you don't have the time to do nothing, where do you start?You can start with an hour, like at lunchtime, or an hour after get off work each day, or you can start with getting up an hour earlier each day.

If you're going to start at lunchtime, you'd better find a quiet place.It is best not to have books, newspapers and friends who want to talk in that place. This is not to ask you to meditate, but just to let you not do anything. No matter what is in your mind, you just sit and do nothing. Another great way to train yourself to do nothing is to stay at home or in the office, even if there are many things to do around you, don't do them.If you haven't had this kind of thought before, you may be forced to do something by some guilt and uncontrollable urges. Gradually, you can increase the time you spend doing nothing. If you can, you can let yourself do nothing for at least half a day or a whole day every month.When you develop this habit, you will be surprised to find that your life becomes so clear and bright, even when you are doing any job.Doing nothing does have this incredible cleansing effect.

Now, I have at least one or two days a month where I allow myself to do nothing.In no time, I was out of the mess and busy life.I urge you to quickly start to try, let yourself do nothing.
