Or, how lots of little moments add up into big ones. Take my recent injury. I’ve talked about this before but it bears repeating. I could spend all my time thinking about how painful and inconvenient this thing is, blah blah blah. Or I could have fun thinking about the little moments during that same time period that made me happy. A few years ago those moments would never even have made an impression let alone be considered “good times”. Let’s look at some. The morning after the injury I knew I had to get some bandages for the laceration. I knew where the CVS was so off i went. That by itself was intriguing trying to start my car with my left hand and move the gear shift. But I’ll come back to that. I was concerned because the low tire pressure light was still on. But which was most important? My arm or my car? I contemplated that as I drove to CVS. And guess what? Right across the street was a Toyota dealer. Voila- problem solved. Boy did I smile. Then when I went to the Toyota place, I was treated like a human being (not always the case) and the woman took great care of me. What a happy and comforting “little” moment. The same happened with each of my encounters or steps when i went to the ER. Lots of little moments to remember and re-experience. Every race I have ever done is overflowing with so many little moments. Isn’t it more fun to think back on those? I recommend making a “little moments” collection. Use a notebook or a notebook app and just jot them down as they occur. Whenever you’re feeling down or unsure read them over. It will brighten your day. And you know another side effect of paying attention to those little moments? You become more interested and invested in helping create a little moment for others. You can’t get more of a win-win situation can you?
