1000 Day Writing Plan Day 321, Thursday.
It was rainy in Shenzhen. I woke up at around five o'clock and the sky was not yet fully bright. When I opened the window, the rain was like silver-gray sticky spider silk, woven into a gentle web, a hazy autumn morning. Accompanied by a light music , start a 15-minute meditation.
Some time in the morning is the most precious moment of the day, and sometimes unintentional enlightenment arises like this.
Life looks so similar, and adults understand the truth, but the difference is that each of us has different observations and cognitions about it with our own experiences, stories, and different observations and cognitions about it.
For example, do you often say the word "no" in life? Because its subtext is: You think something is "I can't do it" or "I lack something, so there is no way..." This is actually using a lack of thinking to deal with things.
A few times ago, I sowed a seed for myself to complete the Iron Third Competition, but I didn’t really start preparing for this.
Because one of the biggest difficulties that comes to mind is swimming. One is fear of water and has not swim in open water. The other is that you can't freestyle (although breaststroke is also feasible, the speed will be much worse).
So two days ago, during a chat with my friends, I reflexively said that I didn’t know (I remember that I said it more than once).
However, just this morning, a thought suddenly came out. Why did I keep emphasizing that I "can't" instead of learning directly? Since the goal is already there, solve the problem around the goal, rather than just thinking about difficult problems. Thinking about the problem, then the problem will always be a problem.
How scary is a person lacking thinking? Sometimes you are in it without knowing it.
The same situation is also reflected in the conversation between me and my child.
Last night, while reading time with your child:
Grace: "Mom, what is your dream?"
Joy: "Become a writer".
Grace: "Then why haven't you become a writer yet? You should have to write a lot of books when you grow up." (To the point of the way)
Joy: "Because I didn't work hard enough when I was a child, I couldn't write~~"
Grace: "Then I work very hard now. I draw every day, I want to become a painter and writer, and an artist." Grace and I have actually had more than once conversations like
.
can't help but make me think:
What did we start to lose our dreams?
If I hadn't communicated with my children, I wouldn't dare to say the word "writer" in real life, because it was really out of reach for reality.
As adults, we are often limited by our environment, vision and experience. The word "no" has even become a habitual language.
And the child’s dream is to carry a seed of curiosity, infinitely exert her imagination without restricting her free activities. This kind of thing that I like and love from the bottom of my heart has also deeply affected me.
So, always keep an aware mind and transform the lack of thinking that "can't" into [what I have, I can learn...] abundance of growth thinking.
