Counterclockwise
“If we spill a drop of red sauce on a white shirt, we easily will notice it. If the shirt were a busy plaid, we might not. Most of us are so disengaged from ourselves — stressed, depressed, overworked, and so on — that we look at ourselves and see plaid shirts. But that can change if we take note of what’s new and different about the world and ourselves. When we notice new things, we come mindful, and mindfulness begets more mindfulness. The more mindful we become, the more we see ourselves as white shirts and the easier it is to find the red spot and remove it.”
