3 Magic Bedtime Questions

For many people, life zooms past, particularly once they reach their working age.

Everyday, it's the same flash routine of waking up, going to work, coming back from work, and sleeping.

It's no wonder why you'll ask yourself, "How did I get old so fast? Where did all the time go?"

The problem is in the routine work. The human mind has this habit called deletion. Anything that keeps repeating, memory does not record, simply because it's not worth taking notice of.

So how can we slow down our experience of time and not let our lives slip by in a flash?

The answer lies in developing mindfulness ... a heightened state of awareness of one's thoughts, feelings, and actions. But if you can't do that yet, you can start off by practicing the 3 Magic Bedtime Questions.

As you lie in bed at night, ask and answer these three questions before you fall asleep:

1. What is one thing I am grateful for today?
2. What do I look forward to tomorrow?
3. What would I like to dream about tonight?

Why do I call these simple questions magical? Well, let me tell you the logic behind them.

What is one thing I am grateful for today?
This question requires you to think through your day to find something you're grateful for.

As you do that, not only will you find something to be grateful for, you will also have recalled your entire day. In Neuro-Linguistic Programming, we call this recapping experience.

Imagine putting your daily experience into a bottle, putting a cap on it, and labelling it, "The day I met Jenny".

Having many of these bottles in your mind, sorts your memories into significant experiences, rather than having them as one large clump called, 'My Working Years ... 20 to 50 years old.'

What do I look forward to tomorrow?
This question requires you to look forward in time and imagine what's going to happen tomorrow.

When you have something to look forward to, it creates a natural anticipation and drive. You'll feel motivated the moment you wake up. It'll be the first thing that pops into your mind.

What would I like to dream about tonight?
Now this question reveals your innermost desires because you naturally choose to dream about what you want and wish for.

This clarifies your direction and purpose.

Perform the 3 Magic Bedtime Questions nightly, and time will slow down. You'll remember more about your life, and have greater clarity of mind to do what counts, before your time runs out.

Understand: by incorporating these 3 magic questions into your life you'll be setting in motion the Power of Synchronicity.

If you add journaling your answers into the mix the synchronicities in life will take that power to the max ... fasten your seatbelt and get ready for the ride of your life!

Love life and live it creatively and on purpose!
