Thread: Pornocrates's Workbook

We all must account for waking life responsibilities and duties. But a hint: there is no better time to have an "mindful moment" than when deeply involved in something. Because that's what happens in dreams usually: we're so immersed in the plot and reacting that we never stop to consider what's going on and whether or not this is a dream experience. Set realistic goals, but for example, try to do at least one "deep breath lucid moment" while in the middle of a test. Just set that goal, and see if you can't achieve it. That would be a major accomplishment!

I think that's the most important part of mindfulness, staying mindful while doing something that requires all your attention and I really believe that if you manage to do that a lot, you'll get way more LDs
I'm saying that to you but I can't even do it ^^
I made an internship and I need to write an activity report, I'm trying to stay mindful while working on it but I always forget that and go in autopilot mode for hours and then I realize that I was lost in my thought ^^

I always do, that's one of the main goals I set when RCing, whenever I fell strong emotions when I feel I'm completely focused on something I RC!
However I should maybe pay more attention to it, I've been spending too much time on auto pilot lately!
