You can do this in a room, it's quite fun to do it.

Just when you're sitting in a room - maybe your bedroom - you can sit there and just sort of meditate on it and think:

'OK, if I wanted to spend ten minutes making this room better, what would I have to do?'

And you have to ask yourself that, right?

And things will pop out in the room that you know you like there's a stack of papers over there that's kind of bugging you and you know that maybe a little order there would be a good thing.

There's some rubbish behind your computer monitor that you haven't attended to for like six months.

The room would be slightly better if it was a little less dusty and the cables weren't all tangled up the same way and like.

If you if you allow yourself just to consider the expanse in which you exist at that moment.

There will be all sorts of things that'll pop out in it that you could just fix.

Well, if you were coming to see me for psychotherapy, the most easiest thing for us to do first would just be to get you to organize your room.

You think: 'Well, is that psychotherapy?'

And the answer is: it depends on how you conceive the limits of your being.

And I would say: start where you can start!

You know, if something announces itself to you as 'in need of repair' that you COULD repair.

You fix a hundred things like that, your life will be a lot different.

Now, I often tell people too: fix the things you repeat every day.

Because people tend to think of those as trivial.

You get up, you brush your teeth, you have your breakfast, you know, you have your routines that you go through every day.

Well, tho- those probably constitute fifty percent of your life!

And people think: 'They are mundane, I don't need to pay attention to them.'

The things you do every day: those are the most important things you do.

I like the idea of the room because you can do that at the drop of a hat.

You know, you go back to where you live and sit down and think: 'Okay, I'm gonna make this place better for half an hour - what should I do?'

You have to ASK and things will just pop up like mad and it's partly because.

Your mind is a very strange thing, as soon as you give it an aim - a genuine aim - it'll reconfigure the world in keeping with that aim.

That that's actually how you see to begin with.

But once you aim, the world will reconfigure itself around that aim, which is very strange.

And that - man! - if you can get one thing through your head and as a consequence of even being in university, that would be a good one: You see what you aim at.

It what you aim at determines the way the world manifests itself to you.

And so if the world is manifesting itself in a very negative way, one thing to ask is: Are you aiming at the right thing?
