Most of my alone time is spent going for walks. This is when I take the time to notice and admire my surroundings. 

I cherish my alone times. I reflect on my life. I reflect on my qualities that needs to be hone and habits I no longer wish to encourage. I reflect on my character, my actions, and my intentions as well my behaviours. I challenge my beliefs. I want to know who I am and what I truly stand for. 

“Are you happy with your life?” is a question I frequently ask myself. Always I search my soul for an honest answer. I refuse to live a lie. I refuse to live a mediocre life. It is essential I understand myself enough to allow my instinct to guide me. 

It is a good habit, taking the time to reflect on the results of one’s decisions and actions. Life is too important a gift to live it anyhow, moving and pushing through blindly without taking the time to reflect. How on earth can one just keep going without ever stopping to reflect upon one’s endeavours. 

No, I owe to myself to make time for self – reflection. I need to be aware of what is working and what is not working, what to keep, what to change and what to chuck out. 

I have become more thoughtful as a result this habit and I reckon I make better decisions as well. 

Thank you for reading.
