More attributes of The Most Important Thing

Intentional - This rules out something involuntary such as flailing about trying to regain our balance, or reacting to a hot plate, etc. So now we can envision the Important thing to be one of Choice, something done according to some previous thought, and intended to be done as part of some Plan, something we have come to know as the Most Important Thing for ourselves alone and distinct from other people.

Duration - It would be something that would have a duration of at least several seconds to as much as several hours at a time without a break.

Celebration - The doing of the Most Important Thing would be somewhat of a celebration, because we actually get to Do it. One must remember that there are billions of people going about their every waking moment and never give the slightest thought to the concept of doing The Most Important Thing right now, or ever!

Breathe - The Do-ing of the Most Important Thing starts with a breath. An Intentional breath. A breath with the Attention put on slowly filling the lungs and slowly releasing all breath and any stress. With the breath we find balance, relaxation, energy. Several breaths, done intentionally, will be an excellent beginning of the Most Important Thing. Try a few intentional easy breaths right now! Imagine how this fits in with the other attributes of Enjoyable, Planned, etc.

Smile - If you are doing this Most Important Thing around other people, your smile will radiate calm and comfortable energy, and help them in whatever they may be doing. If you are doing your Most Important Thing alone, your bodily chemistry will be changed to a more positive state simply by smiling. This is a great secret that many more people could benefit from knowing: Actions create Emotions, and Emotions create Actions. A smile has enormous power. It has been written that it is the Gesture of Maximum Leverage. We smile because we know that we are doing The Most Important Thing right now. We are fulfilling our Destiny. What could be more enjoyable, more pleasurable, more smile-inducing?
