You think you’re “bad at meditating.”
But what you’re actually good at
is noticing when your mind has wandered.
That’s the whole point.

If your mind wanders 100 times
during meditation—
good.
That’s 100 reps
of noticing
and returning.

Calm isn’t the absence of noise.
It’s the ability to hear noise
without becoming it.

Flow expands time.
Distraction fractures it.
When you’re absorbed,
an hour feels full.
When you’re scattered,
an hour feels stolen.
The clock didn’t change.
Your attention did.
