How To Apply The Law Of Reflection To Your Life
Reflection is an important growth practice – It means giving serious thought to something or thinking things through. Lets’s look at ways to intentionally apply this important law to our lives:
Create a place where you can consistently and effectively pause and reflect. It could be on your outdoor terrace or a quiet spot in your garden, a small isolated room where no one would bother you or a special chair in your office. Figure out what works for you and stick with it for as long as it’s effective.
Schedule time to pause and reflect. Spend a short time pausing to reflect at the end of everyday (between ten and thirty minutes). Put these times to pause on your calendar and guard them as you would your most important appointments.
Ask yourself the tough questions. Where do you most need to grow right now? Is it in self-management? Is there an issue that you can’t seem to wrestle down? Whatever your issue is, create questions around it and spend time writing your answer to those questions during your scheduled times of reflection.
