Going to the museum to view works of art without cameras can provide us with a perspective that escapes our view in the daily grind.Every day we should seek to stare a painting, a nice view or an impressive photo for a while just to remind us that our busyness just might be quite insignificant.

How can we create life that looks more and more like us, week in and out? This is a look into creating such life through practical tips.The Calm Workbook has given inspiration for the ideas.

How to Prioritize your Life

And what are your tools to get there?The most important tool that we can learn to use is reflective writing. How else can we start to improve our models and ideas thst make up life now? Writing down our goals, fears and musings with daily routine provides us with daily information about the life we want to direct.It can be just 15 minutes once or twice a day, and answering a few preset questions with a few sentences. First it can be difficult, so write whatever comes to mind. Soon you may notice you start providing creative answers to your own pressing questions.

What are you improving on?

Writing with a routine also helps us in describing people, troubles and musings with sentences that elevate their value for you.Imagine a friend comes to help you move. Instead of plainly describing the fact, imagine writing in the evening: "She is one friend I can always trust. I need to appreciate and respect her more." You were just able to build depth and strength into the friendship, that can become visible in reality with routine.In other words, look for the upper register, however mundane and banal the interactions are.

Use the upper register

We are often guided to set priorities for the day and week and afterwards reflect on them. But with too strictly worded a list, we may end up executing it instead of exploring life.Going to an unknown or inconvenient territory and places should make it to our priority list more often than not. There might indeed be quite a lot we haven't yet realized that is important to us.

How can you know it's valuable?

I've been reading the Calm Workbook, and it provided inspiration for these ideas.

A therapeutic and consoling workbook with exercises to soothe anxiety and create a state of calm. Most of us long to be a little calmer: too many of our days are lost to agitation and worry, stress and discord. Yet we know that we are at our best when we can manage not to panic and take challenges in our stride. Fortunately, a calm state of mind is not a divine gift. Even those of us starting from a more agitated position can systematically understand and lay claim to it. Too many books on this subject simply explain what it would be like to be calm. This is a workbook that takes us through the practical steps required to actually become calm. It is filled with exercises and prompts that deliver the self-understanding and self-compassion on which true serenity depends. Furthermore, the book invites us to build calming routines into our daily lives so that what we learn can stick with us and change us for the long term. Based on years of The School of Life's work in the area of anxiety and calm, this is a landmark workbook guaranteed to bring about the calmer state of mind we long for and deserve.
