The greatest luxury of life is an unhurried mind. - Brendon Burchard What would happen to the quality of our life and relationships if we simply amplified our senses just a little longer? Let us forget for now where we are supposed to be and what we should be doing. Instead, let us hold this moment for just two beats longer. Do not breathe so quickly. Take in air for two beats longer. Do not scan the room. Sense the room by gazing into each shadow and corner for two beats longer. Do not merely glance at her. Look into her eyes and hold them for two beats longer. Do not gulp down the next meal but savor each bite for two beats longer, let the tastes melt and linger. Do not send the heartless note. Read it once more and spend two beats longer sensing the pain it may cause another. Do not give a perfunctory kiss good-bye while juggling everything on the way out the door. Make the kiss count, make it firm and solid and true, holding the moment passionately for two beats longer. Life is lived in the extra beats we hold as time unfolds. Soon, the two beats become four, the four become eight, and eventually we will have mastered the art of experi- encing life, of feeling who we are and where we are on our path to greatness, of creating real moments, of living as joyous masters in the infinite and divine Freedom of Now.
