Discernment

In these trying times, I'm even more aware of the need to be discerning in all decisions.  Our connections with others, how we spend our time, how we prioritize our lives, and everything from when to brush our teeth to what we want to be when we grow up all deserve our conscious attention-- our discernment.

Many walk through life without this level of consciousness and then wonder why their lives are not where the would like them to be.  The bottom line is moment to moment discernment.

How do we cut back spending to allow for the higher gas prices?  Discernment.   How do we decide how to spend our tax refunds?  Discernment.  How do we decide who is important in our lives?  Discernment.

Discernment is inherently a conscious process.  On a scale of 1-10 (10 being absolutely discerning).....  where do you score for your life overall?  How can you improve this?
