If you were to tell your life story, would you include these? What words do you want as part of your life story? What resonants with your true self? (The self before all the cultural and family expectations.) Strip away the EGO and the opinion of others and think about what you want to stand for. What are you about?
Contemplation is crucial for our mental health. Most people don't get peaceful contemplation time. That is why meditation, walking in nature, and self-care is so important. It gives you time away from your phone and distractions and obligations to take time to reflect on yourself and your life. Contemplation allows you to proactively create your life rather than constantly reacting to it.
So spend some time doing nothing. Just contemplating this message and your life story - your present and future.
