Practice makes perfect

Practicing meditation takes a force of will.  The book I mentioned below gives an easy way to start practicing meditation.  Once started, though it takes an intent to continue practicing.  Finding additional time for regular practice in you daily schedule can be difficult.  Most of us have routines that we follow daily, even of that routine contains free time.  We expect that free time to be there and look forward to it - we plan activities throughout the day to get to during our free time, however short.  Taking some of that free time, even a short amount for meditating can cause an internal resistance.  Once this is accomplished though, once the resistance is ignored and the new routine set this will dissipate.  You must overcome this resistance and persevere - practice makes perfect.
