Ways to Be More Observant
It has been my observation that people naturally think of themselves first.
Usually going about their day in a truly self-absorbed way, not being aware of anyone around.
Then there comes a time that they realize other people obviously feel the same.
It comes to their attention as they notice others being self-absorbed.
When you come to the powerful realization that you are surrounded by people who have needs and feelings of their own it seems to be the first step of changing looking at something into observing it.
In what ways can you become more observant? Start observing where you park so you stop losing your car, obviously many parking lots look the same so it is understandable when it happens.
When you observe the different seasons you naturally notice the different plants that bloom into flowers, you notice the warm sunshine or the refreshing rain.
Observe the different ways that people interact with each other, that is the most interesting thing to observe and I think I could do it every day if I had a great spot to sit and watch.
When you observe people for a while you start to discover that everyone has their style.
Some are independent and others are mother hens.
Some wander and others are on a mission.
There are the social butterflies and then the wall flowers.
What ever it is, you can train your self to truly be more observant, everyone should do this.
Here are some ways you can become more observant and train your brain to notice little details.
Make it a point to observe what cars are on either side of you when you park and notice if they have changed when you come back, little memory game here too! When you see a picture, make it a point to observe the little details like colors or cars, maybe a clock and the time.
When you talk to someone be observant about what color eyes they have, this does a couple of things, first it makes you more observant of the person and second it makes you look them in the eye, that is a good thing.
Last but most importantly, make sure and observe the person that you see every day.
Observe the clothes they wear, how they look and go farther than that and make a comment about the things that you like.
Being more observant can improve relationships with family, friends and most importantly spouses.
We all need to realize that we like to be noticed to a certain extent especially by the people who matter most to us.
Being more observant make a person feel more treasured, more important in your life.
Noticing the little aspects of someone is endearing and it takes little effort because we all know how to observe or none of us would have started walking.
