Does this sound like the set of challenges you might be facing?

• The good parts of my day are happening but I’m never actually in them
• My everyday life — the dishes, the walk, the commute — passes in a fog while my mind is somewhere else entirely, and I want to actually be here for the plain, mundane moments instead of sleepwalking through them waiting for the parts that supposedly matter.
• I keep tolerating things and putting off what matters as if I had endless time, and I want to let the plain fact that I don’t cut through the trivial stuff
• I move through the small moments
• My practice lives in a little window and the rest of the day

3. Time Affluence Practices (Cassie Holmes)
   Cassie Holmes’s research on time and happiness identifies several evidence-backed habits that increase felt time abundance: protecting a moderate amount of discretionary time, spending time on activities that match your strengths, investing in experiences over things, and being present in time you already have. Effects are real but modest; the biggest single factor is how you allocate and attend to the time you have, not how much of it there is.
