So I would rock him to sleep (bad sleep hygiene, oops!) and be alone with my thoughts for long periods of time. Sometimes I would plan out the next year or so, while other times I would write out entire blog posts in my head. It was really valuable time for me.</p> <p>I worked from home for a while and in the mornings, I would make it a point to go on a walk and just think. I found that to be really helpful in assessing my life and coming up with "bigger" thoughts than usual.</p> <p>These days though, I am not getting much time alone with my thoughts. I think I have to be more proactive about that! </p> <p>Do you ever have time alone with your own thoughts? What sort of stuff do you usually think about? </p>
