Summary of Seeing the Gift – zen habits zen habits:
Leo Babauta discusses the concept of “Seeing the Gift” as a tool to create powerful change in one’s life. He explains that it can be used to work through common blockers such as feeling that effort is pointless, resisting the effort, frustration with oneself or others, disliking the activity, and feeling an urge to do the old habit. Seeing the Gift involves looking for the gift in any activity or person, and recognizing the gift in moments of frustration or difficulty. It also entails recognizing the gift in the sacredness of the moment and in how it connects one to the divine, to oneself, and to everything around them.
