Slow Down … to Enjoy Life

Many of us live our lives running behind time, but we only reach it when we die of a heart attack or in a car accident rushing to be on time. Others are so anxious of living the future that they forget to live the present, which is the only time that truly exists. We all have equal time throughout the world. No one has more or less. The difference lies in how each one of us does with our time. We need to live each moment. As John Lennon said, “Life is what happens to you while you’re busy making other plans”.I found a cool site called Slow Down Now that offers some tips for slowing down, including:1-Have a cup of tea, put your feet up and stare out of the window. Warning: don’t try this while driving.2-Spend some quality time in the nature.3-Write down these words and place them where you can see them, “Multitasking is a Moral Weakness.”4-Try to do only one thing at a time.

    You are right. The life is passing in hurry and we can't find free time easily to enjoy our life. But we should create time to stop little and enjoy. Working will never stop.

    there are some ways to slow down and enjoy the things that really matter i found it in the net:

    • Look for the beauty around you
    • Begin to read a book for pleasure
    • Spend some quiet time alone
    • Listen better
    • Spend some time visiting with family and/or friends
  • Reem-Very good tips,thank you.
  • Hi Reem,
    Actually i can not do that because i like every thing working as fast as possible.We haven't all the time to do that and the work stress couldn't make this easy.I like John Lennon saying because it's really true.thanks Reem for these tips,I'll try to follow them and slow down.
    So long
