Some great insight there and my thoughts were drawn to this very subject whilst I am in the throes of being contained due to this virus.
I try to take time out every day to evaluate the important versus the trivia and put my own life into perspective.
It does help to sort the wheat from the chaff so to speak.
Its a good habit to get into. Just taking a minute between our different tasks during the day to still the mind is really beneficial. Just to detach your thoughts from what you've been doing and what youre about to do is very calming.

I found this very helpful today, thank you.
The morning was spent participating in a zoom presentation about a new software program followed loads of phone calls and admin tasks then driving to a meeting with a person I support in my role in disabilities.
During the drive I switched off from the activities of the morning and just appreciated the fact that it was a beautiful sunny day, I breathed and cleared my mind and it put me in a better place to be present and productive for that person.

Hi Serene,
Goes to prove it only takes a minute, Bod's addition was brill.
Speaking of small increments of time: It is said that Princess Diana’s chauffeur had his eye off the speedway less than one SECOND...not generally taken in by exaggerations, however, having worked some emergency in my career, uh, yeah, this is VERY possible.
