What details of your life could you pay more attention to?

Hear me out.

Attention to every detail in your life is and will be crucial from now on. This is because you must be self-aware of your actions and choices.

When you’re not conscious of the decisions you’re making, you will miss out on the type of character you’re actively creating within yourself.

Trust me, I’ve been there.

As we navigate through our baby adult years, some of us revert to our childhood years. The impulsiveness to do something, the reckless ideas that sound fun, or the need to spend our adult money is standard.

It’s okay to indulge in those actions once in a while as long as you’re safe. What’s not okay is disregarding any rules or regulations enforced because of your said actions.

For example, racing down a highway. Is it illegal? Am I being reckless? Do I acknowledge that I can endanger my life and others on the highway with my actions?

If you answered yes to those questions and still carried out your actions, you’re not paying attention to details in your life.

Being self-aware has benefits. Unfortunately, it also has downfalls, such as paying too much attention to details in one’s life, which can have the opposite effect.

When you pay too much attention to your actions and choices, you become obsessed with every aspect of your life, and perfectionism is where you’ll be.

That is not the goal. Pay attention to the details but don’t obsess over it.

Lessons are found through mistakes but can be avoided through better decisions.

Until next time,

Sweet T.
