#109 - Rituals&Spontaneity - a podcast by High Noon

The way we spend our lives and the things we do, no matter how big or small, have an influence on how we define life. We all want a sense of significance and find an endless number of ways to find meaning and purpose in this world.

Rituals are routines which we have attached special significance to. It can help us in becoming the best version of ourselves by aligning our goals with the habits that will help us get there. 

Rituals are designed to serve us, which is why it's important to remember that when curating our own rituals, we should be guided by the reasons why we're doing it in the first place. It is not an ordinary or typical routine; rather, it is a one-of-a-kind routine that we have created for ourselves with the intention of reaching our ultimate goal, which is a fulfilled and engaged life. 

While rituals help us be more intentional, habits provide us with a sense of comfort and a stress-free way of completing our everyday tasks. It enables us to better manage our time, change our bad habits, and avoid procrastination. Spontaneity, on the other hand, brings out our adventurous side as it is unpredictable yet exciting. The future is uncertain and sometimes it's also good to step outside of our comfort zone to try new and interesting things that will help us grow and develop as an individual. 

In Episode 109, Andrew talks about how we can identify rituals that are serving us and which are not, as well as their importance in our lives. He emphasizes the difference between habits and spontaneity, and the significance of having both in order to live a balanced life.

When we reach a point in our lives where we are challenged by our thoughts, it's important to understand ourselves so we can assess whether the way we're living is leading us to our goals, or if it's something that we need to change to curate our lives in a way that allows us to enjoy it and control our destiny. Living is truly beautiful when we live a life that helps us grow closer to God, closer to becoming the person we want to be, and closer to living the life we desire.
