Noticing

Part of getting to know yourself is noticing. More specifically, noticing what you notice. 

When you walk into a room full of people, there are the ones you pay attention to, and the ones you practically ignore. The ones that stand out and the ones who are seemingly invisible. Our minds do this automatically. Our brains love to sort. Sorting requires judging and judging might or might not be good. Your attention has to go somewhere. 

If you want to learn more about your motivations, be curious about what catches your eye and maybe more curious about what you ignore.
