Convert a Chore into an Opportunity

 


From Art of Noticing newsletter:

Walking Agatha, her basset hound, involves a lot of waiting around while Agatha sniffs. And Richards has learned to make this an opportunity: “While I wait, I notice things,” from morning dew to full-moon shadows to acorns to falling leaves. She ends with the message: Take a walk and see what you notice.

I’ll add an additional message to build on hers:

Convert an everyday annoyance or chore (waiting while the dog sniffs everything) into an opportunity to engage with the world.
