The Importance of Awareness in Your Life

To the extent that you practice awareness, you can make your life better. You can feel awareness right now as you read these words. What matters is that you know you need awareness now, and that awareness is now the most important thing for you. Your awareness is the most important because you truly need to practice awareness with yourself, awareness of your personality, awareness of your feelings in your life, and awareness of your relationships. In this way you think in the right direction. What matters most is that awareness is like a feeling that needs attention, and on it you practice observing yourself. Your attention may change your feeling and make you aware of your current feeling, and of the feeling you need to let go of so that it does not take control of you. The more your sense of yourself grows, the more important your feeling becomes to you. It is your sense that you truly need to reshape your awareness with the feeling you choose. The following questions help you: • What is your current feeling? • What is the best feeling for me? • What is the feeling you prefer? • Why is my feeling important to me? ("I trust in changing how others feel. I think with a new outlook and I speak about it.")

These sentences need you to pause on them moment by moment. Each time you take up a new feeling, you make your thinking new for yourself.
