Obviously, I’m not sure at what time of day you’re reading this.  Undoubtedly, however, you are surrounded and pre-occupied by the priorities (rightly or wrongly) of the day, the cares of the world.  “Pre-occupied” is a very expressive way of summing up the way our minds can be hijacked by squatters – thoughts, cares and worries that are already there when we try to calm ourselves and clear our minds.

But clear our minds we must.   So, as you read these words, simply stop yourself in your tracks.  Check to compare whether your state of mind is all that it should be – clear and present, just to this moment – nothing more, nothing less.

If you find that you’re mind is pre-occupied, you’ve a choice to make.  Otherwise, you will fumble through your day like all the other mindless morons who credit themselves on being normal.   You need to choose to take at least five minutes out of your busy day – to make sure that you’re at your very best for the rest of the day and that you can do just what you need to do (the right priorities) whole-heartedly.

Otherwise, you’re on a highway to nowhere.
