EP 482: Mindfulness and Hobbies

For so long, my life was all about just making it through the day. It was about survival. I know I wasn’t the only one, but the trouble with that approach to life is that as we just strive to make it through the day, we eventually just try to make it through the years, and that turns into just making it through an entire lifetime. But that’s not what this life is all about. I feel lucky to have learned this about 10 years ago, when I began my journey that would lead to being the guy who creates podcast episodes every day about the wonderful benefits of dwelling in the present moment. In today’s episode, I talk about how this new approach to life has allowed for some very healthy and wonderful hobbies in my life: Do you have any hobbies in your life? Would you like to start one or two? If you do have hobbies, please reply to this email and tell me about them!
