For The Easily Distracted

After Monday's post, a bunch of you replied that being present is definitely how you want to behave, but the question is always, how much do you want it? Do you KIND of want it? Or REALLY want it?

Are you dying to have a week, a day, or a few hours where you're only experiencing what's in front of you?

This video gives you a "handy tip" for how to make BEING social more important than DOING social.

Miranda and I edited this vignette for her film "The Future". It appeared alongside an interview with her on the website Nowness.com, which features exclusive works by prominent artists. It was a complete honor to work with her. You can view the article here: http://www.nowness.com/day/2011/7/26/miranda-july-the-future

Sure, this is radical and funny.

But in seriousness, what will it take for you to be fully present at the dinner table? Or at the school activity? Or when you're hanging with friends?

How much does connecting with others mean to you; try to be honest!

The most precious resource you have is your presence.  Use it wisely.
