I have become my “to do” list.
We all have.

“We are what we think,”
says the Buddha
“We are what we repeatedly do,”
says Aristotle.

I look at my “to do” list daily
hourly
all day
first thing and last thing.
It fills my brain.
It becomes who I am.

We are what we think
and what we repeatedly do.

It is the same with each of us.
Wishing we could live more joyfully,
no time to simply be,
not knowing where to even start...

This morning,
I created my
“to be” list.

Today I will be
grateful
humble
generous.

Today I will be
calm
thoughtful
present.

Today I will BE
just BE
for one minute
every hour.

Every time I sneak a peak at the “to do” list,
it will be my cue to look at my
“to be” list.

Hourly
all day
first thing and last thing.

We are what we think,
and what we repeatedly do.

Breathe in, breathe out,
no time to waste.
I have much to be today.
