On our journey, one of the most important things to do is to learn about ourselves. There are times when this seems to be a stretch as we are busy “getting it all done”. We sort of fail to realize, however, that becoming better versions of ourselves requires some introspection and alone (quiet) time. Yet, even though spending time alone is an obvious part of our journey, we need to think about it with serious intent. It takes some quiet time to think, reflect, assess, explore who we are and how we are doing. It is difficult, if not impossible, to get to increasing levels of personal fulfillment without real worthwhile quiet time. The more we do it, the more we will appreciate the time to think and reflect. It can become our refuge, our happy place, our platform. So, let’s make sure to make quiet time important so that we can fuel the machine and get to our real purpose. A more exciting time we could not spend.
