Being Mindful

I made choices to be mindful.

I will be mindful in everything I do. I tend to multi-task and focus on several things at one go, in the name of efficiency. Colleagues and friends share that I am always full of energy. However, sometimes I feel tired physically and mentally and I wish that I can have more energy to complete all the tasks at hand. I need to learn to be mindful and be PRESENT.

Being mindful can then allow me to make great choices as I am fully aware of the choices that I have made. How to be mindful?
